National Monodyne GT-1 radio.
This one tube radio was made by the National Airphone Company in about 1923. It has a bakelite chassis and uses one WD-12 tube. It came with two coils: the green one receives 150 - 400 meters, and the red one receives 500 - 1000 meters.

Northland radio.
This primitive one tube set may be Northland's first attempt in the radio business. They apparently bought all the components, including the RAY-DE-O-CASE cabinet, assembled them into a radio, and marked the set with a nametag. Northland was located in Minneapolis and manufactured many models during the 1920s and early 1930s.

Northome VI radio.
This 'approximately 1926' battery operated TRF radio made in Northome, Minnesota uses six UX-201A tubes, one which is still the original Northome brand tube. Two large dials were used for tuning. I've heard the wood in Northome radios was logged right there at Northome - it is all solid wood with no veneers.
