Zenith 7-S-232 "Walton" (1938)
(wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)

Zenith 7-S-232 "Walton" (1938)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

"The Waltons" television series used this model 7-S-232 as a prop for the family gatherings in the evenings. That gave this radio its nickname "the Walton" and really is one of the most collectible radios in the world! This seven-tube, three-band (SB, SWx2) operates like new. We replaced all of the wax/paper capacitors with new Mylar caps of equal values. The resisters and tubes were checked and replaced as needed. A new power cord, safety fuse, antenna lead and audio input cable have been added. The radio was aligned for optimum performance. The dial scale is in excellent condition. The radio has a mix of Maple, American Walnut and butt-matched Walnut veneers. There were no repairs needed on this cabinet, so it retains all of its original patina. Gary Marvin has professionally refinished the cabinet with the finest products, ending up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The knobs, speaker and chassis are original to this set. The grille cloth is an accurate reproduction of the original. There were no shortcuts taken as the base and back are refinished and the inside is repainted "Zenith Blue." Waltons are getting very hard to find right now, so don't miss this opportunity to own a beautifully restored Zenith radio! 23"H x 17"W x 13"D.
