Mine was like this, but I think it was AM only. I still remember the smell of its leather case.
I liked to listen to "Lee Alan On the Horn", a very popular Detroit show that came on as I had to go to bed.
I'd listen under the covers using its single ear piece.

("Two speakers? Why would anyone want that?" asked the Fab Four when told about stereo.)

Say what you whale about the book (based on a true account Melville only "happened" across), but this show is fascinating:
