Zenith 12-S-232 "Walton" (1938)
(wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)

Zenith 12-S-232 "Walton" (1938)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

The Zenith "Walton" series radios are on my "top-ten most collectable radios in the world" list. Named from the Walton's television series, the iconic radio is impressive electronically as well. The radio was available in a seven, nine and twelve-tube configuration and featured several Zenith innovations for the 1938 model year. This numbers correct, twelve-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) set has motorized tuning, push-pull audio, tuning eye tube and variable tone settings. The shutter dial works smoothly with the best motor drive I've seen on a Walton. We went through and replaced all of the capacitors, checked resistors and tubes replacing where necessary A new power cord, MP3 cable and a safety fuse were installed. The cabinet is original, retaining the original knobs. The new grille cloth is a reproduction of the original cloth. You will definitely have bragging rights with fellow collectors when they see this magnificent radio in your collection! The price includes shipping! 23"H x 17-3/4"W x 13"D.
