Tube Radio Vintage

To view our other auctions including additional restored antique radios, grill cloth, and supplies. Cabinet: The American walnut cabinet is just gorgeous. Beautiful wood grain flows throughout the entire set. The front of the cabinet features grooved inlays with two eye catching zebra stripe strips. The inlays coupled with the three tier top makes for a unique skyscraper look which was the craze at that time. It all comes together magnificently when powered up and the bright back lit dial comes to life with a warm orange glow. Jet black trim and a large Art Deco grill finish the cabinet off perfectly. This rare beauty is sure to be the main topic of conversation no matter which room in the home or office you choose to display it in. Dial: The front round dial is a real attention getter. It is an ivory color and when lit lights nice and bright creating a warm orange glow. A large compass point design is in the center. All letters and numbers are legible and show very little signs of wear. The dial glass is clear and free from any chips, breaks or cracks. A shiny brass escutcheon surrounds the dial and displays the Air Master logo at the top. All four knobs are in perfect shape and control band switch, tuning, tone control and on/off & volume. Grill Cloth: The 1930s style grill cloth is a fine reproduction featuring a classic gold color with a herringbone design. Chassis: All tubes in the 4 tube chassis were tested with any weak tubes being replaced. All caps, filters, and resistors were checked and replaced as needed. All brittle or bare wiring was replaced or re-insulated. The chassis has been cleaned, lubed, and re-aligned for optimal performance. Using the included copper line antenna the radio performs very well. The radio provides deep rich tone and plenty of volume. The Cabinets Finish and Restoration Process: Our Radio cabinets undergo a vigorous restoration process. Our goal is to maintain the natural beauty of the wood and grain, while providing a deep luster and shine. We achieve this by removing all the old and worn lacquers and stains. We then sand the cabinet with fine grit pads down to the original bare wood. Nicks, chips, and blemishes are filled and/or blended. Any loose veneer is re-secured. We make sure any filler applied or repairs made are blended nicely and do not detract from the beauty of the set unless otherwise noted. New stains and sealers are applied by hand. We continue by using many coats of Mohawk brand lacquers and toners applied in the same manner as when the radio was originally finished in the factory. We use a nitrocellulose piano lacquer which is applied through a professional HVLP turbine spray system in a climate controlled room. Nitrocellulose lacquer is very thin. We also apply very thin coats. This allows the lacquer to seep into the grain and not cover it up. A fine grit wet sanding follows every third coat along with a polishing process and ending with an Oz glaze rub. Many hours of work are put into the radios, but as you can see, the final outcome is a beautiful, natural looking cabinet with gorgeous luster& shine. Our radios are a great piece of history that come to you ready to proudly display, as well as listen to, in any room of the home or office. Dimensions: 12 1/2″ W x 16 H x 8 1/4″ D. I sell quality antique radios and describe them accurately, as can be confirmed with my outstanding feedback. My radios are expertly packed using oversized boxes, many layers of bubble wrap, and several inches of packing material surrounding each side of the radio so you can be assured they arrive safely. If your radio arrives and does not work please let us know. We will gladly walk you through the process of troubleshooting to get it started. The tubes, capacitors, resistors, and filters. However, if at any time these parts would happen to fail, we will assist in repairing or replacing the defective part at minimal cost. Finally, in very rare instances, if there is. If that is the case with your country, you assume the risk of any damage or undelivered package. Antique tube radio reception can differ greatly depending on location, length of antenna, and amount of interference in different areas. Playing capability is accurately described based on my location, surroundings, and hooked up to a 12 copper line antenna. The antenna will be included with the sale but I cannot guarantee reception quality in your area. It may differ (better or worse) depending on your location, surroundings, and interference. Antique Radio Electronics, whether restored or un-restored, are by nature hazardous due to their voltage, design and age. Any operation, repairs or other adjustments are done at your own risk.
