Beautiful 1940 Sears Roebuck Silvertone model R1261 and chassis 100.351. From what I was reading, it has both broadcast and shortwave bands. Looks to be all original but be sure to check out the pictures. Missing the back panel. The outside is pretty clean and still in good shape. Only minor signs of age. A few light wear marks. The grill fabric is in good shape with a few water marks. The tuner has some yellowing which is usual. The unit was plugged in with no sound. Nothing further was tested. It may need a tube replaced. It will not take much at all to get this one sounding great. 18″ wide, 10 1/4″ tall, and 8 1/2 deep. If you need for me to look this information up for you, I can, just let me know. It will be protected well and insured. Let me know if you have questions.
