The radio did not power on when I plugged it in so it may need some minor adjustment, new tubes, etc. The tuning dial will need some adjustment/lubrication as well. The dark walnut Bakelite cabinet looks really nice! I did not see any cracks, chips, etc. One of the molded screw hole guides has broken off so that screw head does have a place to adhere to. This radio would be a great candidate for a full restoration. Please preview all of the pictures as they will best help show the cosmetic condition. Please also ask any & all questions ahead of time.
