Philco 52 Cathedral (1932)
(wood tube cathedral radio w/Aux or BT)

Philco 52 Cathedral (1932)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!
This model 52 Cathedral radio sold by Philco Canada has the same chassis as the U.S. model 51, but with a much nicer cabinet. The cabinet has been refinished to look like new. The knobs and escutcheon are original; the grille cloth has been replaced. Like every radio I sell, the chassis has been restored to perfection, working at least as well as the day it was originally sold. Capacitors have been replaced, along with new resistors where needed, a strong set of tubes, and a meticulous RF/IF alignment. The original speaker is in great shape. A new vintage-type power cord has been installed along with an internal fuse for improved safety. It's a five-tube superheterodyne without AVC. Sensitivity and selectivity are excellent. This is a great opportunity to own one of Philco's iconic Cathedral designs at an affordable price. 16-1/4"H x 13-1/2"W x 8-1/2"D.
