Afterthought: it seems to me that back in the fifties, Motorola was the first to come out with speakers having the magnet out in front of the cone, as a space-saving measure.

Denatured alcohol is another decent corrosion remover.
I've had a 54L1 since the 60's, but it wasn't until I put batteries in it earlier this year that I found out it works.
Also have a Pixie. Pretty sensitive little radio.
