Emerson was one of the companies introducing finely perforated grille material as a new design direction in the post war years. Here the perforated material covers most of the front of the radio for a very modern appearance. The embossed gold dial and silver-domed pointer give this radio a striking appearance in either a well lighted or dark room. The cabinet on this one was refinished in the past by a previous owner; it's no longer perfect, but looks quite presentable. The knobs are original; the dial cover is a reproduction. Not sure if the back is original. The All American Five chassis has been fully restored to work like new, with all paper and electrolytic 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. Lighted dial. 11"W x 8"H x 6-1/2"D. $145.00. (1310212)
