The US patent was filed in 1980, and was published in 1983. Check out the bottom link for construction drawings.Also, I found an old NY Times article from 1987, reporting on the Las Vegas winter CES. These, or similar speakers are mentioned. Here's the quote from the article:
"The Electro Magnetic Corporation of Fort Smith, Ark., offered a way to make stereo speakers nearly invisible. It has developed wall-mounted speakers that measure about 2 by 3 feet but are only 3 inches thick. Speakers can be made to pass for a piece of art by covering them with a painted screen. The company offers a selection of modern and classic screen designs or will silk-screen a customer's own design."
