If you are considering purchasing this radio, please read the full description. Offered for your consideration is a restored Crosley regenerative – one tube radio – model Ace V, manufactured in 1922. It has been serviced, is in good working condition and plays very well. Horn or headphones and power supply not included. Given its 100-year-old age, it is in extremely nice original condition. The finish on the solid wood cabinet shows wear and tear even what looks like a big hand print – but I decided not to refinish it, as many collectors prefer original condition. The new owner may, or may not want to refinish it. Overall, the wooden case is solid and the top is not warped. The black bakelite panel and bakelite knobs are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or breaks. The capacitors and grid leak are all in spec. The knobs turn freely and the engravings on the bakelite are very legible. The Crosley decals are present and under the lid. It works well and brings in a considerable number of stations – I got about seven and I live in the boonies. The new owner will have to provide their own speaker horn, battery eliminator and antenna wire. The radio can be powered by nine volt batteries for the 22 volts and 1.5 batteries for the filament, by soldering together in series. This radio comes with one good engraved Deforest 401A tube – a great collector’s tube on its own. The radio measures – 11″ across, 4 1/2″ wide and 6 tall. Every vintage tube radio I sell has been thoroughly serviced – tubes tested, components checked and then the unit is lubricated and cleaned inside and out. The work performed can be seen in the pictures of the chassis and/or found in the radio description. Howsoever, because of the inherent danger of a mistake by the new owner connecting a battery eliminator to the radio and damaging – over which I have no control – the radio comes with no guarantee – express or implied.
