In fact, it could have been manufactured in’46 or’47. Not much information available. The knobs, speaker fabric, back and dial are all original. The crystal clear dial cover is a new replacement. The wooden cabinet is in great shape with nicks and dings consistent with age. On the bottom left side in the back, there’s a small veneer repair. T his Arvin picks up many stations loud and clear. The tubes are good. Capacitors have been replace as well as resistors if needed, but there still is an audible hum. 12″ W x 8″ H x 7 D. Look over the pictures carefully to make sure the condition of the radio is acceptable to you. They offer a better external description than I could. If you have any questions, please contact me. I ran the radio about a half hour before packing it to make sure it was working properly. Please don’t mess with the electronics unless you’re experienced working on vintage radios due to the presence of high voltages. Since this radio is old, I can’t guarantee anything other than it was working when boxed. FedX has been doing a great job delivering them undamaged. Of course, please let me know immediately if you have a problem. I’d like you to enjoy this radio as much as I have.

1939 Arvin radio model 602/603 chassis model 58. Distinctive arch top makes it unique & coveted by collectors. The glossy mottled brown/black Bakelite will need a polish. There are some minor surface scratches still that are apparent at certain camera angles – it’s old : it’s beautiful and it works. I have sanded and polished off the oxidation 98% restored to its original Bakelite beautiful color. The Arvin (silver) logo on top which is like a silk screen on a tube did not make it through the polishing. The speaker is impressive for the age and gets pretty loud. The original lighted dial scale, pointer and amber tinted dial cover are in great condition as well. Comes with original hard board back in vintage condition. As well as the schematic. An eye catching centerpiece for any collection or decor! 11″W x 8″H x 6D. This is a vintage radio! It will be packed with utmost care.

Offered for your consideration is this wonderful, restored Arvin 5 tube radio – model 53. It is considered a compact or midget radio manufactured in the early 1950′s. It plays exceptionally well – clear and crisp with no hum. This is a working radio ready to play, display and enjoy – the sound is very good – it is playing as I write this. As with all my radios it is electrically sound – the tubes are strong and all of the original wax/paper capacitors have been replaced. The case has been restored to a screaming fire engine red using high quality automotive paint – it shines. The grill cloth is an excellent replacement and it is correct without a back. The measurements are: 8″ across, 5″ high and 4 wide. This radio 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.
