Atwater Kent 84 (1931)
(wood tube cathedral radio)

Atwater Kent 84 (1931)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

When cathedral radios were first offered in the early 1930's, they were referred to as midget or compact radios. They were so much smaller than the console and large "coffin" style radios that preceded them. By today's standards they are quite large and heavy. The model 84 does have a darker "gothic" look, but also has a beauty of its own. The graceful arched and pointed top graced with simple side moldings. This six-tube, AM-only radio plays loud and clear with great tone and sensitivity through the original 8-inch speaker. We replaced all of the capacitors, resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. The chassis, tube shields and dial are in perfect condition. It's the cleanest original chassis I have ever seen. The switch on the side is original and it reduces the sensitivity for local stations. The switch on the back is for tone control. Gary stripped the cabinet and refinished to a "factory fresh" look. This beautiful and great performing radio is ready for your collection. Don't miss out on this highly collectable Atwater Kent! They aren't making them any more folks! 19"H x 15-1/2" W x 10"D.
