Arvin 417 "Rhythm Baby" (1936)
(wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)

Arvin 417 "Rhythm Baby" (1936)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

This is the more difficult to find of the Rhythm Baby models, as it has the Color dial. Years ago, I had two of these, one with the plain mundane dial and this one. Someone "just had to have a Rhythm Baby," and I let the one I liked least go and kept this one. Gosh, it's so beautiful! It's been my "Baby" for a long, long time, but now it's time for someone to adopt it and give it a good home! Lots and lots of Art Deco influence in the design. This beautiful cabinet has been lovingly refinished using the finest toning and finishing lacquers, producing a beautiful finish. The electronics have been completely restored (no shortcut repairs and it is internally fused for your safety), and it plays very nicely on both the AM Broadcast and shortwave bands. New period correct grille cloth, cloth power cord and Bakelite plug. Nice correct spoked Arvin wood knobs are even present. 11-1/2"H x 9"W x 7-1/2"D.
