Tested and the clock and sound works. Produced static, and the clock did turn. See the cracking on the bottom. This is a rare piece. I can’t find any other units for sale of this model, late alone the fact that it is pink.

Rare Vintage Motorola The Real Bullet Nose Tube Radio. All Original
rare
Comments Off
A beautiful preserved, pristine, conditioned, art deco, Bakelite case all original no replacement parts pieces repaint etc. There’s no cracks in casing has a few usage age scratches. I’ve cleaned up for photos/presentation. Also the electrical cord has no tearing or damage. The bullet name no affiliation to the Steve McQueen movie. The knobs work on- off and dial rotate. They are part of my description. I like to point out imperfections whereas you may see other listings descriptions where they don’t and only reference to see photos and you try to find them. I do not plug in these old radios due to age wiring and old tubes. If you want you can take to a professional. I have them on display only in my collection. I’m not sure of year made. I’m guessing 1950s/60s approximately 65 years old. 12″ long and 7″ wide to bullet nose tip and 6high.

VTG Rare Blaupunkt Granada 3D 2220 Tube Radio TESTED WORKING READ DESCRIPTION
rare
Comments Off
Radio powers on and all tubes work. They all light up and get warm (including fully functioning magic eye tube). FM reception is working as are both the tape inputs and ouputs, along with the aux speaker output. All 3 speakers are tested and working no issues. Have played all 3 at full volume with full clarity. I could not pull in on any of these and it seems to be a common with these. Cosmetically it’s in pretty nice shape I’ve highlighted all of the flaws. Out of the box this will pull in fm and work perfectly and also allow you to hook up an auxiliary source (including bluetooth) with the proper adapters and an auxiliary speaker should you want to. It’s a real gem. I don’t have time to diagnose the issues with the other frequency bands.

Comments Off
Stunning 1933 Zenith Model 715 Tombstone Tube Radio – Fully Restored with Modern Bluetooth Integration. Up for sale is a meticulously restored piece of American radio history: a 1933 Zenith Model 715 tombstone radio. Introduced in the summer of 1933 as part of Zenith’s highly acclaimed “New Challenger” lineup, this premium 8-tube receiver represents the pinnacle of early 1930s design and engineering. This particular unit has been professionally serviced and thoughtfully upgraded to bridge the gap between classic analog warmth and modern convenience. Design & Cabinet Aesthetics. The Model 715 features one of the most celebrated and intricate cabinet designs of the era. The upright tombstone cabinet boasts a gorgeous, matched butt-walnut front overlay framed by elegant architectural pilasters and an exceptionally ornate wooden lattice grille over the speaker cloth. On the front, the beautiful brass escutcheon frames an orange-lit vertical drum dial. Right above the dial sits Zenith’s iconic early mechanical Shadowgraph Tuning Indicator, which projects a narrowing shadow onto a small screen to let you visually tune into a station’s peak resonance. The Chassis & Technical Restoration. Under the hood, this radio features a powerful 8-tube superheterodyne circuit that delivers incredible selectivity and room-filling volume through its heavy-duty 8-inch dynamic speaker. Original Tube Lineup: 58 (RF Amp), 58 (Mixer), 56 (Oscillator), 58 (IF Amp), 55 (2nd Detector/AVC), a pair of 59s running in a push-pull power output configuration, and an 80 rectifier. The Restoration: The chassis has been thoroughly cleaned, tested, and restored. The power section and entire circuit have been checked for stable, safe operation, ensuring those classic filaments glow perfectly and perform reliably. Modern Upgrades: Bluetooth & Aux Input. To make this masterpiece functional for today’s music lovers, a seamless modern upgrade has been installed. Auxiliary Input & Bluetooth Module: An auxiliary input jack has been cleanly integrated into the circuit, complete with an external Bluetooth receiver. The Best of Both Worlds: This allows you to stream your favorite podcasts, Spotify playlists, or internet radio directly from your smartphone, tablet, or computer. The audio routes directly through the radio’s legendary push-pull tube amplifier stage, giving your digital music that unmistakable, rich, velvety vintage tone. This unit will be double-boxed, padded extensively with premium packing materials, and fully insured to ensure it arrives at your doorstep in the exact condition it left the bench. Tubes may be wrapped individually inside the cabinet if necessary for safe transit. Don’t miss the chance to own a fully functional, upgraded masterpiece from the golden age of radio engineering!
