Emerson pocket (mini-tube) radio

Emerson, ever the maker of novelty radios with duplicated numbers, produced a pocket tube job just like a Sears Silvertone I have like this one

https://radiogallery.net/radio.htm?radio=10465

I estimate the date to be mid 1950s, both have CD marks on dial.

The Emerson uses a 45v B battery and a 1.5v C cell, only its missing c-cell battery cover. I haven't opened it all the way up yet, the four tube types may be 1AE5-1AK4

Both could be considered a pocket radio, mainly due to use of "T2 x 3" ob-round sub-miniature tubes.
