Ere is something that is a very scarce commodity in a vintage Bakelite radio – the Bakelite is JET BLACK. You just don’t see this colour. This is Zenith model 5H11 Consol-tone radio, due to its shape it is commonly called the Racetrack mode – very unique styling. This is a working radio ready to play, display and enjoy – the sound is very good with no hum. The black Bakelite case is in very good shape – shiny and has no crack chips or dings. As with all my radios it is electrically sound – the tubes are strong and the new cord has a a polarized plug. All of the he original wax and paper capacitors have been replaced. This radio is in good condition. It features: racetrack body bullet shaped at each end, with a very distinctive grill cover with the Zenith logo – the metal plate shows normal wear. The Z at the top lights up when it is turned on, it has its original back, large knobs and loop antenna and pointed feet. It is a good sized radio, the case measures 14″ across, 7″high, and 7 wide and it will give years of good service. 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.
