Tele-Tone 138 (1946)
(Bakelite tube table radio)

Tele-Tone 138 (1946)

NEW!The late 1940s witnessed the beginning of a shift away from Deco and Machine Age designs toward Mid Century Modern, with its more streamlined geometric forms and reduced ornamentation. This Tele-Tone is an example of forward-thinking design in 1946. While the cabinet material is still Bakelite, the aesthetic is more modern. The cabinet on this one is in nice condition, free of cracks and chips. The knobs and dial are original; the back is a reproduction. The five-tube All American Five chassis has been restored to work like new, with all electrolytic and paper capacitors replaced, several new resistors, a strong set of tubes, and a full RF/IF alignment. A new polarized power cord has been installed along with modified switch wiring for improved safety. This radio doesn't have a built-in antenna; a suitable wire antenna has been provided. The short wave band on this radio is nonfunctional, but you probably won't miss it. Lighted dial. Just $20 shipping to 48 states. 11"W x 7"H x 6-1/2"D.  $145.00. (1310210)
