Philco 90 (1931)
(wood tube cathedral radio)

Philco 90 (1931)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Edward Combs designed this beautiful radio. It was a nine-tube radio and considered one of the top of the Philco lineup. This version has a single 47 tube for audio. This radio is stunning and sought after by collectors. It has AVC (automatic volume control) so as you tune it regulates the volume of the radio. You can see faintly the pencil marks from one of the owners as they located west coast stations. This radio was one of the first Superheterodyne radios and really had innovative features for its time! The chassis restoration was done by Blake Dietze and the cabinet was refinished by Gary Marvin, both outstanding local craftsmen. The radio retains its original grille cloth. An input jack has been added so it can play modern programing through a large number of devices. 18-3/4"H x 17-1/4"W x 12"D.
