This item is in used condition. There are signs of wear and discoloration throughout due to use and aging. This item is for parts/repair only. The radio turns on but only hums.

Here is a neat rare mini tombstone Emerson set for someone to fix up and add to their collection. I don’t see a model number listed on it, but believe it to be a model 108, made in 1936. It is made of Ivory Plaskon. This set is not perfect but a very worthwhile and attractive set to fix up. I do not know its electrical condition. The chassis looks to be unaltered and factory to me. Its power cord has been cut. These sets had a dangerous power cord that was likely to burn so it needs that needs modernized anyway. Plaskon is a sensitive material that over time usually stresses or cracks. This set has some of these typical hairline cracks. The biggest is at the bottom of its back plate, see photos showing both the inside and outside of this hairline cracks. It has 3 very tiny hairline short cracks at its front bottom. One near a knob and 2 along a decorative line. See photos of a pen pointing to those. This set has some grille cloth deterioration at the bottom. This set looks to have 2 screws holding its back cover that are not original, and one missing. I believe the 2 bottom screws are original. The top, sides, and bottom look good with no cracks. The dial looks good as far as I can tell. I believe that covers everything. Message me with questions.
Vintage 1936 Pre-WWII Art Deco Wood Tube Radio – Powers On / Restoration Project. Up for sale is an authentic, rare vintage 1936 Coronado Model 575 table tombstone tube radio. An exceptional, highly sought-after piece of broadcasting history that retains its original internal paper schematic layout label! Makes a phenomenal shelf display or a rewarding winter restoration project. Brand: Coronado (Gamble-Skogmo House Brand). Model Number: 575 (Confirmed by the original internal paper cabinet label). Production Year: Circa 1935 / 1936. Cabinet Material: Walnut Wood (Tombstone style). Features: Gorgeous airplane dial with pre-war “Police” markings, original brass Coronado lower shield badge, original matching wood grain control knobs, and an authentic purple-tinted fabric grill cloth insert. Technical Note: The power cord has been previously updated with a safe, modern replacement cord (not original brittle cloth). When briefly plugged in, the unit successfully receives power, the main rectifier tube lights up with an authentic orange filament glow. The left volume/power knob turns smoothly. The middle band switch knob rotates freely without clicking. The right tuning knob is currently stuck/firm (likely needs a standard replacement dial cord string or lubrication). The wooden cabinet is structurally solid and sturdy but displays honest character wear. Notably, there is a prominent vertical strip of missing veneer along the back edge of the left side panel (please see the dedicated side photo for an exact look at this specific flaw). There are also a few small cosmetic wood chips on the top corner edges. The raw wood bottom remains solid with tight chassis bolts and original markings. Please review all high-resolution photos for the exact cosmetic details. A classic, highly collectible piece of pre-war Americana bar and parlor culture.

Fresh from a local estate, this is a vintage Zenith Model 6-S-229 tombstone tube radio that is in working condition. I did not get any reception on the shortwave bands as they are very difficult to receive in my area. For a video of the unit playing, see the attached link that I have provided. All of the knobs turn smoothly and properly and the dial indicator functions properly as well. The finish on the radio is all original and has simply been cleaned and polished with a professional wood wax and presents well. The most wear is on the top of the radio. The speaker grill is in poor condition. The power cord is in excellent condition, still flexible. Great looking, desireable Zenith radio that will be a fine addition to your collection. Do not hesitate to make an offer all will be considered.
