This is a curtain burner set made by the De Luxe Manufacturing Company in Chicago, Illinois. It was made in 1935 and is a model 405. The schematic lists three models with similar layouts and mentions one that does not have any pilot lights just like this one. I also have a sales booklet for this set that gives the original price as $32.50. (It cost me a little bit more than that) It also lists the name as "De Luxe" and not run together as "Deluxe."
Nice...has this one been professionally refinished? A lot of these old Art Deco radios are being refinished by radio collectors, and they look amazing when done properly.
Thank you, Phil!
Arisellon,
I don't know about professionally but this set had been redone. It's hard to tell in this picture because of the poor lighting. It looks much better in person.
