_nr5.jpg "Crosley 817 \"Super 8\" (1938)") |
 The Crosley 817, or "Super 8," called that because of the eight-tube configuration and 8-inch speaker. This is one of my favorite radios, combining a beautiful, brass-accented Walnut cabinet, a perfect "mirror glass" dial, and a strong push-pull audio, as strong as some console radios! The 817 is an eight-tube, three-band (SB, SWx2) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents, checked and replaced out-of-tolerance resistors. The tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. We installed a new power cord, safety fuse, antenna lead and an audio input cable. Gary did a fantastic job refinishing the Walnut, Madrone, Maple inlay veneers. He stripped and refinished it with quality toners and ending up with a "piano" lacquer finish. He did a magnificent job, this radio is a work of art! He replaced the grille cloth with a nice period reproduction, and the original knobs, 8-inch speaker and chassis are with the set. This is one of the best examples you're going to find of a Crosley "Super 8." 17"W x 10"H x 7"D. $749.00. (1600621) |
