I think the old Warwick plant in Chicago is still there, or at least one of them. I think I saw that it was a shipping facility now.

According to the Riders coverage, it appears that Warwick started in the mid to later '30's.
They built a lot of private label products, before they built exclusively for Sears.
I worked on two Warwick solid state sets, one K-mart and one Coronado. The one that had the small SCR power supply, in the rear left-hand corner.
They were identical to the Sears set.
