THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Detrola made a lot of radios for branding purposes. You will find motor tuned models that were made by Detrola were used by Truetone, Silvertone, Aria, Air Castle...at least 20 different brands and many cabinet variations. This eight-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) set was a strong performer with great sensitivity and push-pull audio utilizing two 42 audio tubes. Blake replaced all of the capacitors, checked all the resistors and tubes, replacing where needed. He went through the motorized tuner, and all the presets work well. A new power cord, audio cable, antenna wire and safety fuse were all installed. Gary stripped the cabinet, refinishing the walnut beauty to a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The radio retains the original grille cloth, knobs and Rola speaker. A new crystal-clear dial cover and push buttons were installed. This rare radio is fully functional, and the original Detrola model is desired by collectors. 21"W x 11-3/4"H x 9"D.
