This vintage Zenith FM radio from 1948 is a stunning piece of history. It could be early 1950′s. But I do believe it’s from 1948. The radio is housed in a beautiful Bakelite case and features tube technology which provides a distinctive sound quality. The radio is in good working condition and has been tested to ensure that it is functional. This radio would make a great addition to any collection of vintage electronics or as a centerpiece in any room. I’ll add video to the pics. The plug is missing the cover piece that goes around the prongs. (See pics) One of the little screw brackets is missing that holds the back on. I do try to include pics with and without flash to try to capture as many details as possible.

Vintage Bakelite Zenith Tone Register Tube Radio Model 7H820Z that has been partially restored. Radio is not functioning, receives static and some buzzing, but most of the capacitors have been replaced, so it should not take much more to get this radio functioning. All of the tubes tested good on my Eico Model 625 tube tester. Dials function properly, but one of the gold backing dials is missing on the right side. Body is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks and the power cord is in excellent condition as well. The grill cloth has some minor fraying on the left side, but it does not detract from the overall appearance. Great looking retro radio that will be a fine addition to your collection.
