Airline 04BR-514 (1939)
I am offering for sale this rarely seen ivory colored Airline radio. The Airline brand was Montgomery Ward's exclusive line of radios. Employing the top "modern" designers of the day, Airline radios were known for their unique designs and high quality construction. This original finish ivory white, Bakelite tabletop is chock full of charming appeal. It is hard to find an example of this radio in such nice original condition. Furnished with ultra-modern preset buttons, this little chump featured cutting edge technology (for 1939). This well designed radio has a big sound in a small package. With the flip of a switch you can enjoy the unmistakable warm rich audio that only tube technology can deliver. The back of the radio is as I have had it for many years in my collection. Reproduction backs are available online. This five-tube AM radio has had all period capacitors replaced, all tubes checked and replaced. All controls have been cleaned and lubed to operate as new and a new cord has been added. Comes with a one-year warranty on the electrical restoration. 10"W x 7"H x 6"D.
