THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD! |
The year 1939 produced some beautiful radio case designs, but none better than this Zenith tabletop set, which is an icon of the Art Deco period. It was designed by Robert Budlong, one of Zenith's most prolific radio engineers. This beautiful completely original Bakelite set with its streamline shape was described as a Franciscan Brown color and originally sold for $14.95. The case is in really nice condition, with no cosmetic issues like chips, cracks or hairline cracks. It plays fine with just a short antenna wire, but even better with a link to an external antenna, as this model did not have a loop antenna. The dial lamp works fine and the beautiful gold dial really lights up. It has a nice Retro-Tronics back on the set, styled as the original. About 10-1/2"W x 6-1/2"H x 7"D.
