Vintage Tube Radio Clock “Admiral Continental 5X22″ 1952/53. Not tested, needs attention: when I opened the back, the white wire came away from the soldered connection. I think the small ribbed metal turning knobs on the front above & below the clock face are missing, but the rods protruding can still turn & move the smaller hands. What looks like a scratch on the side, on close up is a crack… Please see the third to last pic. I found this model on the USA’Radio Museum’ website & have included a copy of their info… See the last pic. Measures: Width 9.25 x Depth 5.5″ x Height 6″.

It was part of an ENORMOUS radio collection. When I plugged the clock radio in, the clock worked fine. The radio did not play no static, hum, etc. My guess is that one of the tubes needs to be replaced or that there is some other minor TLC needed. I did not check/test any of the tubes. The molded plastic cabinet is nice and solid. There is one small crack on the upper right side of the radio (see the close-up picture). There are some other minor imperfections like you might expect on a piece from this era. It is also missing the 2 small plastic knobs that control the switches. I believe that this is 100% original. As you can see from the pictures, the chassis looks clean but the clock radio has been in storage for many years so I’m sure that it could use a good/thorough cleaning. I do not have the proper equipment to test this piece any further. Please be sure to preview all of the pictures so that you can determine the condition for yourself.

Antique Admiral shortwave radio measures 15 inches long x 8 3/4 inches tall x 7 inches deep. Radio hums and has some static. Knob on right is not the original knob, but that is what came with it. The speaker cover is missing and it looks like somebody painted the wood where the speaker is black. I do not see where there is a model number, but I found on internet where it is A-31 and 1936. The only marking is Admiral which is on front. Would make a nice project to get working. Wood box has minor ding and blemishes, not bad for the age.

Offered for sale is a pre-war, 1939 Admiral table radio, one of the “Aeroscope” models. I believe this is model 162 3-5L, although there are 161 and 163 models that look identical to this (see Radiomuseum listings). The numbering may reflect the color. This is a black bakelite case. The radio is not working and needs repair. The dial tuner knob/dial needle is engaged and turns easily. The unit appears to have its original tubes, but I did not dis-assemble the unit more than is shown in the photos.

1947 Admiral 7T10E-N Tube Radio. Presented here for your consideration is this museum quality 1947 ebony gem from Admiral. Made in Chicago, Admiral made quite a statement with this a large and robust cabinet design when so many other manufacturers were concentrating on smaller, compact plastic sets. Featuring the original “A’” monogrammed knobs and a warmly illuminated dial scale, it has been restored and is ready for your listening enjoyment. Beautiful black plastic bakelite cabinet (not painted) that is smooth to the touch with a mirror-like reflectivity. Intricately and meticulously hand polished to a brilliant factory fresh luster while maintaining and preserving its original and historically accurate appearance. It measures 8″ tall X 13 1/4″ wide. This is a fully restored and working radio. With each of my restored radios I invest significant time and attention to detail in order to bring you a radio with a level of workmanship and quality at a much higher standard than an average restoration. One that is not only worth displaying in your prized collection or proudly accenting your home or office decor, but one that will also bring you dependable and reliable listening enjoyment. In the interest of safety, performance and reliability ALL paper, wax and electrolytic capacitors have been replaced with modern day equivalents. Any resistors testing out of their allotted tolerance have been replaced. Every tube was tested and replaced if found to be under performing. Voltages are checked against the manufacturers specs. All moving parts are lubricated for smooth operation. A brand new power cord is added to replace the unsafe and brittle original. The signal strength is then aligned to factory specs to provide peak performance. Lastly, the set is then put through its paces by bench testing it for a minimum of 48 hours to ensure reliability and to allow for a proper’burn in’ period for new components. As a result of this entire restoration process, the set performs clearly, strongly and with that unmistakable tube driven sound. Very attractive cabinet appeal! No cracks, breaks or chips. Beautiful ebony plastic/bakelite cabinet (not painted) with an eye catching mirror-like reflectivity. Intricately and meticulously hand polished and detailed through a multi-stage process bringing the cabinet back to its original and historically accurate appearance all while retaining the natural production qualities and textures of the cabinet. All resulting in a beautifully reflective luster (you can see reflections of my shop in the photos). No shortcuts are taken. No clear coats, oils or auto waxes are used. Knobs & Dial Scale. Complete with the original factory plastic knobs. Each displays the Admiral “A” monogram wonderfully and is such a nice accent on this beauty. Each knob has been meticulously hand polished to a reflective luster with no chips, cracks or breaks. The dial scale features an ornate silver foil center that is simply wonderful to look at. Accented by a brown plastic aviation style dial pointer. The numbers are easy to read and are warmly illuminated when the set is on. All protected by a crystal clear plastic dial lens. This set also comes complete with the original factory backboard. It shows some very slight bowing near the left but still holds very strongly and securely as intended. It’s the same backboard that it left the factory with in 1947. Please view all 11 photos. The item “Outstanding Restored Antique Vintage 1947 ADMIRAL Black Bakelite Tube Radio” is in sale since Saturday, March 24, 2018. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Radio, Phonograph, TV, Phone\Radios\Tube Radios\1930-49″. The seller is “radiogallery” and is located in Farmington, Michigan.
