This iconic set was designed shortly after WW2, and was manufactured in bakelite starting with Series A in late 1946. The set on offer is part of Series C, and was made in 1948. The radio is in great physical condition, as pictured, with no cracks, chips, breaks, or repairs (other than the original white bakelite plug) noted. The paint looks good, with one tiny piece chipped off on the upper right side. Another nice touch is that the radio retains its original printed press board backing. Please review all photos to make a determination of condition for yourself. Not only does this radio look great, but it sounds fantastic, too. As with virtually all tube radios, it takes between 15 – 30 seconds for it to warm up before the sound kicks in. The radio has a nice strong speaker, and picked up all of my local stations across the dial without even attaching an antenna. For superior performance and sensitivity, a small random length of wire can be attached to the small clip in back.
