The Fine Things are Always Hand Made

Need more info. Your photo reference is unclear.
You hint at having the Alwave Fifteen model - 12 tube receiver and needing the 3 tube amp - 1934-5.
Post a photos of your receiver- front view and rear view.
Also which style knob do you seek.
Barry - is this the radio on the Antique Radio Forum thread starting Nov 16 by "twilightzonepinball"?
Scott Allwave Fifteen in the Scott TASMAN console, with correct pedestal speaker, but missing the amp?
The replies you got on ARF are pretty good.
If so, I can provide a photo of the amp you seek.
Barry - I have three Scott AW-15's, in different console cabinets.
Scott used a chrome plated 3 tube amp style on several models over the years, so be alert.
You want the one with two 2A3 output tubes and a 5Z3 rectifier. (see photo attached)
It has a 6 pin Jones socket for the set plug and a round 6 pin speaker plug socket.
Has three top mounted filter caps and a one choke plus the power transformer
Tube sockets have embossed tube numbers numbers.
NOT the earlier version amp with two 45's and an 80 rectifier - not compatible.
NOT the late 1930's version with two 6V6's and a 5V4 rectifier - not compatible.
There is a very rough, over priced AW-15 amp on eBay (324875071991) to help familiarize yourself. Note - the original chrome plated choke has been replaced. Very bad chrome and any body's guess if it has been further hacked.
Be patient for a decent AW-15 amp.
Meanwhile, clean up the cabinet being care not to damage the speaker cloth. To clean the receiver, vacuum and use a small brush to remove all the grit and dirt you can. Then use liquid Turtle brand liquid chrome polish with small squares of old cotton towel.
