Made in the United States between 1946-48, it is a classic example of tube radio technology from the mid-20th century. The post World War II wood I’m guessing mahogany?

Measuring 19 1/2 inches wide, 9 inches tall and 8 inches deep. This radio is a great addition to your collection of vintage radios or as a decorative piece in your living space. This piece has not been plugged in or tested for safety reasons, but all components appear to be intact. The button and dials are still functional to move along the frequencies. The wiring is frayed and insulation has worn off in key areas.

Vintage Zenith Trans Oceanic Wave Magnet H500 Tube Radio W/ Operating Guide Read. Good cosmetic condition for its age. Has some scuffs and scratches but overall in good condition. I plug the unit in and I hear a very light hum, you have to get your ear very close to the speaker to hear this. I’m not sure what’s wrong with this unit.

Vintage 1953 Philco 53-960 Radio 9 Bands / Short Wave

This is an early 1950′s Philco tabletop radio, model 53-960, circa 1953. The radio is quite large with a 10″ speaker, measuring 22.5″ wide, 16″ high, and 12.5″ deep. It also has a built in antenna that extends 53 inches. It weighs in atalmost 35 1bs. 25M, 19M, 16M and 13M. It has several scratches and some knicks to the mahogany wood. The backing is missing. The antenna is in fine shape and extends over 4 feet tall. It is very heavy at nearly 34 lbs. The plug in has been repaired and rigged with 2 different wires but it does work when plugged in. I have listened to different stations on it, I have also picked up faint (fuzzy sounding) signals from stations out of other countries overseas. The radio could definitely use a tune up/cleaning and perhaps replacement of the bulbs along the back side. It will definitely be a beautiful and unique piece once restored and in the hands of a knowledgeable person.
