The transmitter in the photo,  which I did not see, is either a  Collins 21-A 
 or 21-B.  If the cabinets look like the 20-T,  1  kW. Collins then it is 
either a 21-B or a 21-L as it was manufacturered as  both a 5 kW. and 10 kW. rig, 
 jst by adding another  892 in the PA  stage.
 
I emailed Barry brochures on the 21-A which is copyrighted 1949 but was  
designed before WWII. I also mailed him a photo of the 21-B that was at WSM as a  
auxiliary transmitter.
