Stewart-Warner R-1881 (1938)
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

Stewart-Warner R-1881 (1938)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Stewart-Warner "entry" level radios had the same quality built into them as the more expensive sets, but sold for a lower cost. The 1881 has never been shown for sale on the Attic. It is a nice performer with a simple but nice "waterfall" cabinet design. The R-1881 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,SW) AC/DC radio that utilizes a ballast tube. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. A new power cord, safety fuse and antenna lead were installed. The radio has nice fidelity with a separate tone control. Gary did a great job refinishing the cabinet and ended up with a polished "piano" lacquer finish. The knobs, chassis and speaker are all original, and a new crystal-clear dial cover was installed. This nice little radio is priced to sell...make it yours today! 14"W x 10"H x 8"D.
