Tube Radio Vintage

Veneers at right angles to one another. And, with seven tubes and a six inch speaker, it sounds great too, with tone control for your listening preference and a bright green “Magic Eye” tuning indicator. Add to that the unique roll tuning dial and volume controls and the adjustable preset tuning buttons, and you have a very high end radio for the times that still has charm and distinction. A highly collectible radio, it will enhance any location in your home or office. Unlike many of this model radio, this escutcheon is not warped or cracked; it is in excellent condition! As with all of the radios I restore, it has been gone over with the utmost attention to detail. The cabinet was disassembled and cleaned. It retains the original stain, which was rejuvenated and nourished. The top and bottom trim were redone with brown mahogany toners. The entire cabinet was then given eight coats of clear lacquer. Finally, it was waxed with two coats of quality beeswax/orange oil polish to nurture and further bring out the beauty of the wood. The knobs, dial face and buttons are original. The dial is crisp and clear and is nicely back lit by two pilot bulbs. The grill cloth has been replaced, as was the power cord. There is no missing veneer nor damage to the finish other than one barely. Ding to the upper right trim of the speaker grill. Electronically, the chassis was restored, cleaned and serviced, with all paper/wax and electrolytic capacitors replaced with new ones. Tubes and resistors were tested and replaced as needed. All controls and contacts were detail cleaned and lubricated. Wiring and other components were replaced as needed. The radio was aligned, peaked and tuned for optimal reception and quality of sound using a seven foot wire antenna (supplied). Just imagine the news stories, music and other entertainment this lovely radio has broadcast over the past 80 years. Now fully restored, it now has many more years of reliable quality sound and visual delight if well cared for. Dimensions: 16×14.5×9.5 It will be very well packaged to arrive safely to you! Note: Tube radios consist of a variety of vacuum tubes, capacitors, resistors and other electronic components. This radio has been disassembled, cleaned, and components tested. All non-functioning or suspect components were replaced. Vacuum tubes are similar to light bulbs in that an interior filament heats up inside the vacuum tube. When the filament burns out, the tube will need to be replaced. The tubes in this radio are in good working order. The longevity of the tube and its filaments is related to the length of time the radio is operated and the frequency of turning the radio power on and off.
