newb here, equipment question

[algae]

Hello all. I hope this is the correct subforum for such a question. I was browsing the SWLing entry on wikipedia and need help identifying the black radio on the left in the linked picture below. Any ideas? Thanks.

Tried for quite some time, but I can't quite make out the logo beneath the speaker. "M A R...."something. I've never seen a radio quite like that since the Zenith Trans-Oceanic in the 50s and 60s. This one seems a bit more modern, but, no help here. Sorry.
