RCA Radiola III Type R1 AR-805 (1924)
(wood tube portable radio)

RCA Radiola III Type R1 AR-805 (1924)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

This is a beautiful working Radiola III with two good (expensive) WD-11 tubes. I have owned this for ten years, it was restored when I acquired it as part of a very nice collection. It displays wonderfully, and with a battery eliminator and a long wire antenna works just fine (requires headphones). The pictures tell the story, not much I can add. You will note the lettering and hardware is gold plated, which is quite unusual (the collector who restored it had access to a gold plating facility). While unusual, it is really attractive. The small cabinet is almost cube-shaped at 8"W x 7"H (including height of tubes) x 7"D. Shipping weight 9 pounds.
