IIRC, GE put out some models which had two arms...one to play 78's and one
to play LP's...?! I also agree (as an "ex-radio collector"...LONG story!) 
that
1931would be an EXTREMELY early date for a "radio-phonograph!"

The console models are anywhere from c.1934 to WWII...the smaller table
models (now being reproduced...well more or less?!) are late-thirties to 
late
forties...!
