Shriner 1925 Convention radio
A crystal radio is embedded in this 9-inch tall cast plaster figure of a bear wearing a shriner fez. Molded into the base is '1925 SHRINERS CONVENTION, LOS ANGELES'. The Al Malaikah Temple in Los Angeles hosted the national shriner convention in 1925 and numerous souveniers were available. It is unknown if this radio was just a souvenier or if it was some sort of prize or award. The radio chassis is very similar to the one in the Shriner 'Baby Jacqueline' radio.
