I’m not really sure, but truly looks like the real thing, but no guarantees. I have used it to place my original bluebird radio that i own on it to resemble the plateau base that was optional in 1936 and the color is an exact match. It measures approximately 14 1/4 ” across and the inside hole measures approx 6 1/4 “. The light green felt appears to be very old and very original as well. This would be ideal for a collector who needs to replace a damaged cobalt bluebird radio front mirror. There is no damage, chips, cracks or crazing. I’ve included photos of the 1936 sparton 566 bluebird radio that i own sitting on what might have been a plateau base or an original bluebird radio front mirror that is for sale.The item “Vintage Sparton 566 Bluebird Radio Front Mirror Glass Original 1936″ is in sale since Sunday, April 05, 2015.

It was designed by walter dorwin teague. Beautiful blue glass mirror surrounds the radio and also comes with its original blue glass mirror base or plateau. Its all original and authentic never been touched and will come just as you see it! Stands an impressive 15″ high and 14-1/4″ wide.. I’m not an expert on antique radios but i will describe what i see.. First off, yes it does have damage (see photo) off to the side you will see 3 cracks in the mirror and one of the round wooden black feet is missing. The plateau is 14-1/4wide an also has a small underside bruise & chip on the edge (see photo).. With that said, i plugged the radio in and it works right now (see video) and also comes with its original paper pamphlet that was folded up and stored in the back of the radio.. The center dial face doesn’t seem to light up could be something simple to fix and my thoughts are that the plateau could be cut to replace the radio mirror and the small damage spot on the plateau will be covered up by the round black wood foot.. So, yes it can be done! Or if you own any of the art deco blue mirror tops from end tables those could be cut as well to refurbish the radio.. The chrome on the radio looks be in good condition and will need a good cleaning and polishing.. The radio dial face that has the sparton name on it is in great condition with no fading, it just my pictures are not the best to show that. Its a great radio and worthy of restoration! Anything else i’ve left out just ask and ill try my best to answer it.. (below is a video of the radio working). Larger & heavier items. There has been a lot of interest in this radio and specially the plateau it sits on. Both piece are 100% original and with there original felt backing, guaranteed! The plateau was offered thru the company but as an extra piece back in 1936 and did not come with the radio.The item “Vintage Sparton 566 Bluebird Radio Art Deco Blue Mirror Glass Original 1936″ is in sale since Sunday, March 29, 2015.

(hard to take good photos due to all the reflected objects)this is an antique / vintage circa 1937 art deco sparton 558 “sled” radio.. it is, as can be seen in pretty good condition with some wear to the paint on the swirl pattern and a small blemish in the mirror above the dial… It has the blue glass front and side mirrors with the chrome vent side.. Plating in good condition… No cracks in the mirrors… The top is black wood which i have never seen before so i assume its was a mirror as well prior (top also has a metal edge)… One knob has lost its chrome metal trim insert ring(see photos)… The chassis and interior look complete, it does light up, but i was not able to tune any channels in… Cord is worn , but works… Overall it looks great as is or would be a good candidate to restore or for parts…The item “ANTIQUE Vintage Art Deco Blue Mirror Sparton 558 Sled Radio Tube Radio” is in sale since Sunday, January 25, 2015.
