Sentinel 118C Modified for AC (1939)
(Bakelite tube table radio)

Sentinel 118C Modified for AC (1939)

From the heart of the Art Deco era (late 30s) comes this cute little Bakelite radio. It was originally a battery operated set but it has been totally reconfigured to perform flawlessly on AC power. All components under the chassis are new and the tubes are strong. The four-tube circuit works like a five-tube radio because the 70L7 is a beam power tube and a rectifier in one envelope. It plays loud and clear and has good selectivity across the AM band. The cabinet is beautiful natural Bakelite with brown and black marbling. There are no cracks or chips in it at all. The back is acrylic so you can see the stuff inside! The schematic was taken from a Mission Bell model 407 and modified to use a 70L7 instead of a 35Z5 and a 50L6. There is a tube layout and small schematic in the radio itself. You will get a full 8x10 schematic and layout. 11"W x 7"H x 6"D. Weight for shipping is about 10 lbs.  $135.00. (1000294)
