National's model SW-54 was a very popular entry-level communications radio during the 1950s. It was made from 1950-1957. Priced at $50-$60, it was directly competitive with the also-popular 

Hallcrafters sr 38 which went through several variations between 1946 and 1961.

The SW-54 is a five-tube AC/DC type receiver, covering the frequencies .54-30 Mhz in four bands. It offers CW as well as AM mode (although no BFO). Audio is supplied through either the built-in speaker or headphones. The controls are simple and clearly marked, appropriate for this type of radio.
