_nr22.jpg "Zenith 6-D-311 (1939)") |
 The year 1939 produced many beautiful radio case designs, but none better than this Zenith tabletop set, which is unlike any other and an icon of the Art Deco period. It was one of Zenith's first sets utilizing Bakelite in the manufacturing process, and was designed by Robert Budlong, one of Zenith's most prolific radio engineers. This beautiful completely original set with its streamline shape was described as a Franciscan Brown color and originally sold for $14.95. The radio has to its credit an appearance in one of MGM's Andy Hardy movies from 1940, "Strike Up the Band," with Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland. The case is in excellent 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 it up. It has its original knobs and the original back on the case in excellent condition. About 10-1/2"W x 6-1/2"H x 7"D. $278.00.
