.jpg "Stewart-Warner R-1802 \"Cube\" (1938)") |
Stewart-Warner started producing radios in 1925. They had already established themselves, manufacturing high-quality automobile gauges, and their radios were also of a high quality. They hired the best designers and engineers right out of college, and their products reflected that quality and precision. The R-1802 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,Police) radio. I attribute Zenith for producing the first "Cube" design radios. They were great sellers, so most manufacturers followed suit and came out with a "Cube" design. Stewart-Warner was no exception, and they manufactured a few models of their own. All of the capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse and audio input cable were installed. Gary stripped the cabinet and did a fantastic job refinishing the unique Walnut cabinet. The original knobs, speaker and chassis along with a perfect dial scale are with the radio. The cabinet features a pedestal base and presents nicely with a beautiful "piano" lacquer finish. This is simply a gorgeous, great performing radio. It's ready to grace someone's collection! 16-1/2"W x 11-1/2"H x 9-1/2"D. $596.00. (1600531) |
