Zenith 5-S-127 Tombstone (1936)
(wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)

Zenith 5-S-127 Tombstone (1936)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

You are looking at one of the iconic tombstones that made Zenith famous. The brightly lit 6-inch dial was the source of the "black dial" fame with flywheel tuning. The radio is a five-tube super-het which receives both AM and Shortwave. The cabinet condition looks to be original with some cosmetic touch up by the previous owner. Although not perfect, it is still quite acceptable. The speaker cloth is original and the radio is complete with the iconic wood "Z" knobs. The radio is a tremendous player with great selectivity and sound quality. Les has done a complete repair with all of the aged parts which have failed being replaced and those that might be prone to future failure. He added a mini-jack to allow you an unlimited choice of content along with a fresh power cord and plug for your safe operation. These radios are a collector favorite, which good reason: they are terrific radios. Bluetooth is now available! 19"H x 13-1/2"W x 11"D.
