I happened to be wasting time on a Youtube video, "Raus aus den Trümmern - Vom Beginn des Wiederaufbaus in Berlin 1945"
( Up from the ruins - from the beginning of the rebuilding of Berlin 1945 ) at 00:31:46 of an 11 minute colorized film,

It's a VE301 People's Radio, being traded at an official "Tauschzentrale", an office for trading things you don't really need for things
you do want, clothes, blankets, whatever.
This is a 3 tube regenerative radio for LW and MW bands.
I was never in Berlin. But i recall still in the mid-1950s, a decade after the big storm, the Stuttgart radio still had a program of
announcements each day of people looking for lost or relocated relatives, or any information on them.
