THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD! |
For style and function, the 4465 is one of my favorite tombstone radios. The "Egyptian" motif cabinet and dial has an eye tube that looks like the sun, with projecting rays. Very unusual, and was used on several console and table radios in Silvertone's "Golden Jubilee" series. The cabinet had a broad base that gently tapers in towards the top, giving the radio its "Pyramid" nickname. The 4465 is an eight-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) and has the large, golden dial with the extended range (1850kcs) AM band. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. The "tuning eye" tube is bright and active. A safety fuse, power cord, audio input and antenna lead were installed. Gary did his usual masterful work stripping and refinishing to a "piano" lacquer finish. The knobs, speaker and chassis are original. A reproduction grille cloth was added. A great performing, beautiful and collectable radio. 21"H x 16"W x 11"D. |
