EKCO B86 (1935)
(Bakelite tube table radio)

EKCO B86 (1935)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Our British EKCO radio is a battery set with a strikingly memorable, black Bakelite case. It is prominently featured in Peter Sheridan's fine 2014 collectors' book, titled, "Deco Radios" on page 149. This radio was designed as a long wave and MW/AM radio, but, due to an incident previous to our possession, only the AM band works. Our radio restorer was able to fix its other mechanical problems, and he made it look as good as new, again! He replaced seven elecrolytics, four diodes, the AC power cord and plug, the 8-pin octal plug, the usable antenna coil, ten metalized Mylar film capacitors, four resistors, and the antenna wire. A 120VAC transformer power supply has been designed to supply power to the radio through a battery pack. This historic radio truly looks great and plays well.
