THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Aetna was brand name for radios sold in Walgreens Drug Stores based in Chicago, IL. They used several companies to manufacture their brand, with initials of the manufacturer on the label. Detrola (DL), Sentinel (SL), Belmont (BRC), Warwick (WMCO), Wells-Gardner (WG), Colonial (CL) and others. The 253-CL was originally a four-tube, AM only TRF radio, but this radio has replacement AA5 chassis and plays great! Gary stripped and refinished the "cube" cabinet to a "piano" lacquer finish (yes, even Aetna had a cube design!). The very colorful original dial scale, back, knobs and escutcheon are original. This is a totally unique radio that will play for years. Priced right, so make it yours today! 10-1/2"W x 8"H x 7"D.
