Frost Radio What is it and How old?

[diggin jimmy hoffa]

I found 3 of these in a American Flyer Train Set box and can't find anything about them through a Google search or through Feebay,

Any ideas on age and usage?

Thanks in advance

Looking more for the application of the insignia label if anyone has a clue.

Size?

The is lots of advertising (especially in Popular Mechanics) on the internet for "Herbert H. Frost" and Frost Radio. He made parts and head phones through the 1920's. I didn't see any logo that looked like yours.
