Packard Bell Prototype
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

Packard Bell Prototype

SALE!  I believe this is the only example of this radio in existence or extremely rare. It is the largest model to have the chassis mounted from the bottom. The chassis and antenna design is nearly the same as the model 51 dating from about 1939 shown on Russoldradios.com. The main difference is that the 51 has a ten-tube chassis and this has eight tubes. The center plywood with dramatic nearly 90 degree bends. This design was destined for failure and in pieces when I got it. The reason I believe it is a prototype is the lack of any identifying labels and the push buttons are wood! Except for the finish the set is original and in excellent condition. The chassis was very clean and is serviced and plays well. If you are looking for a just to find one radio this is for you. 19"W x 11"H x 10"D.  Was $699.00, now $599.00. (0260872)
