The Rare Confetti Bakelite Vintage 1941 Admiral Aeroscope Tube Radio is a unique and collectible piece of history. Made in the United States by Admiral, this radio showcases the intricate design and craftsmanship of the era. With its retro Bakelite material and confetti-like decorations, this radio is sure to be a standout addition to any vintage collection. This item was brought up using a Variac to help preserve the capacitors & tubes after it was sitting safely in storage. This Admiral works great, powers on, lights up & is able to play and receive stations. It could use a little deoxit & a professional restoration but physically is in excellent shape. Virtually no scratches or scrapes on the chassis and looks like it just came out of the showroom yesterday.

Vintage Motorola repair mans case was acquired from a retired 93 year old radio & tv repairman. The reason I put Rare? You don’t see that many Motorola cases and I could not find this particular case anywhere. This case is not metal, but wood! “Neat piece For Display Or Add To The Collection” The case has normal signs of wear, but is Solid & In Overall Good Condition! See My Other Listings, For More Tubes, Testers, Tube Caddy’s Etc. From The Same Collection!
Some scuffs/ wear noted. Nice hard to find red case. Minor wear to cord some damage to center pointer- looks to have bends- see photos. Does work well without the antenna as videod.

I have found very little about this piece. Made by Marti Electronics it is a model 25C, I believe it is a transmitter. The tag also reads M-25C / MR-30 / 150-170. 15 vacuum tubes in the unit. All look to be original vintage, I see many of the Bugle boy ones installed. It has a Turner Carbon Microphone attached. This came from a local radio station. This unit was hooked up on a rack mount. Now I have no way to test so I have to sell it as I found it. Pretty cool old piece. Please check over the photos. Thank you for looking.

With some clean and polish, this could be one beautiful set! I don’t think you can do better in owning a 100-year-old piece of Early Radio History! FROM AI ON THE NET. The Air-Way Type F is a rare, four-tube regenerative radio receiver manufactured in 1923 and 1924 by the Air-Way Electric Appliance Corp. The company, which made vacuum cleaners, briefly entered the radio market during the early 1920s. Production: The Type F model was made in both 1923 and 1924, though its primitive and compact design did not hold up well over time. Circuit: The receiver uses RF amplification rather than regeneration, as Air-Way did not have a license for the Armstrong regenerative circuit. Performance: These sets were not known for their performance, with one contemporary report noting that they “acquired a reputation for picking up more dust than radio stations”. Tuning was reportedly not very selective or sensitive. Known variants: At least two versions were produced, one with two rheostats and another with three. Collector’s item: Due to their rarity, the Air-Way Type F is a highly sought-after vintage radio. Power supply: The radio is an early battery-powered set, and specialized “ARBEE II type” power supplies may be required to run them. AI responses may include mistakes.
