This little beauty looks like it just came out of the box brand new! The dark walnut Bakelite has a deep and very glossy shine as depicted in the photos. And it has absolutely no damage or flaws, which is really amazing for a 72 year old radio. As well, it sounds really good for such a small radio, with great selectivity and reception using the internal loop antenna and powered by five tubes. It is completely restored. As with all of the radios I restore, it has been gone over with the utmost detail. The radio was completely disassembled and cleaned. The cabinet was polished to a gleaming luster. The station numbers are still crisp and clear. The dial pointer is back lit for night use. The Bakelite knobs are original, as is the back cover/antenna. The power cord was replaced, but uses the original plug. Electronically, the chassis was restored, cleaned and serviced, with. Paper/wax and electrolytic capacitors replaced with new ones. Tubes and resistors were tested and replaced as needed. All controls and contacts were detail cleaned and lubricated. Wiring and other components were replaced as needed. The radio was aligned, peaked and tuned for optimal reception and quality of sound using the internal loop antenna. A smaller radio, it will fit in just about anywhere and is a great conversation piece. Now that it is restored, it will last for many more years if properly cared for. It is a delight for the eyes and ears and a must for the serious collector. Dimensions: 9×5.5×5.5.
