Stromberg-Carlson 225H (1937)

Stromberg-Carlson 225H (1937)

Stromberg-Carlson built some beautiful, high quality sets in the thirties, and this is one of their most collectable sets. The 225H cabinet is gorgeous, using Brazilian Rosewood and walnut veneers, with ma-le inlays. The beautiful tulip grille work along with its ebony lacquer accents are breathtaking. This set still has its original finish and its original grille cloth, in amazing condition to be 86 years old. This set has had an electronic restoration, replacing all paper and filter caps, out of tolerance resistors, a new line cord has been added. The 225H has the Broadcast band as well as two Shortwave bands, and plays loud and clear. This is an AC/DC set as well. Don't miss the opportunity to add this highly collectible set to your collection. 16"W x 9"H x 8"D. $759.00. (0620217)

 

Climax "Conquistador" (1935)

Climax "Conquistador" (1935)

This is a fairly rare set by a very desirable manufacturer, that's in great original condition. This set has its original finish and grille cloth, both in excellent condition. The electronics have been restored replacing the capacitors, out of tolerance resistors, and the original resistor line cord was replaced with a new cord and a big power resistor on a heat sink. This little set has BC and a SW band. This four-tube set plays very well for a four-tube set, sensitive and great volume. You will never find a better example of this rare set, if you find one at all. 9-3/4"W x 7-1/4"H x 5-3/4"D. $269.00. (0620216)

 

Zenith 6-D-317 "World's Fair" Glass Rod Radio

Zenith 6-D-317 "World's Fair" Glass Rod Radio

This is one of Zenith's most interesting sets, made specifically for the 1939 World's Fair. This set has been electronically restored, replacing the line cord, all caps, and out of tolerance resistors. This set plays great and is BC band only. This set has been taken care of and still retains its original finish, and still looks good after 80+ years. 14-1/4"W x 8-1/4"H x 8"D. $799.00. (0620215)

 

Mantola R401 (1937)

Mantola R401 (1937)

This beautiful set seldom shows up for sale, as it is fairly rare. The colorful backlit dial stands out, and it's simply a beautiful, very collectible set. The chassis is a clean example and has had a complete electronic restoration. All filter caps and paper caps were replaced, along with out of tolerance resistors,etc. The cabinet was refinished in a lacquer finish using correct toners, with multiple coats, hand-rubbed just as it was in 1937. This set plays loud and clear on both BC and SW bands, a very good performer. This set would set off any collection or just by itself in the parlor. 18-1/2"W x 9-1/2"H x 9"D. $525.00. (0620211)

 

Emerson AM-187 "Pagoda" (1937)

Emerson AM-187 "Pagoda" (1937)

Here is one of the most unusual and seldom seen repwood sets made. These sets were antiqued by hand from the factory; Silver leaf was used as well as traces of red and shadowing. These sets were expensive, as this is the best performing repwood set I've ever owned. Most repwood sets were cheap radios that did not perform well. There isn't much info out there on these as there weren't many made, and very seldom does one come up for sale. The information was given to me by an avid Emerson collector, and a collector that collects nothing but repwood sets. This set still retains its original wood back, with its model number stamped in it. The chassis is clean and rust free and the speaker is flawless. The chassis was electronically restored, cleaning all pots and switches, changing of all filter and paper caps, new cloth line cord, etc. This set has a lot of volume and picks up a lot of stations across the dial. The set has both BC and SW bands. This is a very unique set and I've had it for ten years; the last one I've seen for sale was this one. 14-1/2"W x 9"H x 7"D. $595.00. (0620206)

 

RCA 45EY-26 "Alice in Wonderland" 45rpm Phonograph (1951)

RCA 45EY-26 "Alice in Wonderland" 45rpm Phonograph (1951)

Anyone that grew up in the fifties remembers these little little 45 record players/changers when 45 records were all the rave. Everyone wanted one! This is the rare kids version which was the same as the adult players, except the color scheme, decals, and the kids' version had a metal turntable instead of plastic. The amp has been electronically restore, replacing caps, resistors, etc. The record changer was disassembled, cleaned and lubricated. The idler wheel, cycling cam, rubber motor mounts, rubber bushings under the turntable replaced. The cap assembly was disassembled and cleaned. The platform has been replaced but the cabinet retains its original paint and decals. These Alice in Wonderland versions are scarce, and prized by collectors. These record players are expensive to restore so don't miss out on this one. It plays and sounds great with its two-stage tube amplifier. The cartridge and needle was replaced with a stereo cartridge that was bridged into mono, so you can play stereo 45s as well. You can stack 12 or more 45 records on the spindle at a time. These are beautiful little machines that sound awesome. 10-1/2"W x 5"H x 8-1/2"D (cabinet). $479.00. (0620200)

 

Majestic 371 Cathedral (1933)

Majestic 371 Cathedral (1933)

This little Majestic is a set you don't run across often. This paticular set has its original finish, and all of its paper labels attached in the cabinet. It still has most of the original style frosted Majestic tubes in it. The set still has its original line cord as well. The set has been electronically restored and plays great. The chassis is very clean in this set as well as the speaker, all excellent. If you are looking for an all original set then this is the one. These sets are very desirable and hard to come by. 12-1/2"W x 11-1/2"H x 7-1/2"D. $479.00. (0620117)

Philco 41-226 (1941)

Philco 41-226 (1941)

Here is one of Philco's rarest and most collectable pre-war sets. The left side is fluted giving the set a very extrodinary Deco look, and made this radio known as "The Sled." The set also has beautiful veneer inlays as well. This radio is sporting its original finish, which is in super condition (better than the pic). The chassis has been electronically restored and is super clean condition. This rare little set has minimal warpage on the plastic grille, which are always warped to some degree on these sets. The radio plays loud and clear on both bands and will make a great addition to any collection. 13-1/2"W x 8-1/2"H x 6"D. $299.00. (0620073)
