Stewart-Warner R-1235 "The Aristocrat" (1933)

Stewart-Warner started out manufacturing gauges and parts for automobiles around 1912, and still do to this day. Radio production started in 1925. In-house designers came up with beautiful cabinet designs, and each radio was given a "nickname" at the factory. "The Stewart," "Campus," "Zephyr," the "Spade," "Apartment," "The Prado,"... the list goes on and on. The R-1235A "Aristocrat" is a four-tube, AM only radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A safety fuse, new polarized power cord, audio input cable and antenna lead were installed. Master cabinet refinisher Gary Marvin added his skill to this gorgeous radio, ending up with a "piano" lacquer finish to die for! Here's what Gary had to say about this radio: "This is a four-tube radio with a 6-inch speaker. It's not real sensitive, but I was able to get seven local AM stations. The tone is surprisingly good. The audio cable is a real asset for this radio, because you can stream an unlimited source of music or talk from my phone or Bluetooth. The cabinet is really cute with the barley twist pilasters and Birdseye maple." The radio has the original knobs, speaker and chassis. This perfect Stewart-Warner can be yours...and you can proudly add to and grace your collection. 12-1/2"H x 10"W x 8"D.  $749.00. (1600602)
