Firestone R-3051A "Air Chief" (1939)
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

Firestone R-3051A "Air Chief" (1939)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Firestone, well known for their tires and repair outlets, also sold radios and appliances within their stores. Many a customer left with a new set of tires and a nice new radio for the family. This beautiful Air Chief doesn't appear often on The Radio Attic! The cabinet has been refinished using the very finest toning and finishing lacquers, producing a gorgeous finish honoring the original finish details. All the capacitors have been replaced with modern types, out of tolerance resistors replaced, tubes checked and replaced where needed, antenna lead installed, and a new fused polarized power cord installed, and it plays very nicely on both the AM and both shortwave. Bright wooden knobs, period specific replacement grill cloth, nice crisp graphic dial with the sought after airplane style dial pointer. I accept mailed checks as payment. 15-1/4"W x 9-1/2"H x 7-3/4"D.
