Zenith 7-S-28 Tombstone (1936)
(wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)

Zenith 7-S-28 Tombstone (1936)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

The 7-S-28 could possibly be the rarest of the 1936 model year tombstones. Zenith had several 1935-36 models that shared the same multi-colored dial and bezel. They completely redesigned their radios for 1937. Many consider 1935 to 1940 to be the "glory years" of innovation and design for Zenith. The 7-S-28 is a seven-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) set and Zenith had three other "28" models including one finished in ebony. One of the new features was a two-knob, coarse/fine "split-second" tuning set-up. Blake dug into the chassis, replacing all of the capacitors, checking resistors and tubes, replacing where needed. An MP3 cable, safety fuse and new power cord were installed. Gary found this radio at an estate sale, and it has an original finish with minimal wear. The grille cloth, knobs and speaker are original. An incredible find due to its rarity and originality. This is a rare, sensitive, strong-playing radio and I don't think it will be for sale long! The price includes shipping. 22-1/2"H x 16-1/2"W x 14"D.
