Vintage Airline 93BR-715A Tabletop Pushbutton AM/SW Radio For Restoration
vintage
Comments Off
Fresh from a local estate, this Airline Model 93BR-715A pushbutton tabletop radio is a good candidate for restoration. The radio powered up, but I could detect a distinct capacitor odor, so the unit will have to be recapped to get it functioning. The finish on the radio is all original and has simply been cleaned and polished with a professional wood wax. There is significant wear to the shellac on the top and the grill veneer is warped and broken in a few spots. The bottom of the radio is showing some separating of the plywood, most likely from moisture. The plastic dial bezel is broken at 3 of the corners and will need some work to get it properly affixed. Both knobs turn smoothly and properly and the wheel dials function properly as well. The push buttons are a bit sticky and will need attention. The grill cloth is in good condition, with no rips or holes. The power cord is a replacement. Despite the defects, the radio is quite worthy of a restoration. Do not hesitate to make an offer all will be considered.
