.jpg "Zenith 6-D-029 \"Boomerang\" (1946)") |
 In 1941, Zenith produced five or six models of the "boomerang" radio, named for the shape of the dial. Designed in wood and Bakelite by Robert Budlong, it was one of the last new radios produced before war production started in April of 1942. The other one was the Trans-Oceanic multi-band radio. In !946, Zenith continued the Consoletone model with a few new "Boomerang" sets. The 6-D-029 is a six-tube, AM only, AC/DC set. New for 1946, it also had the newly designed "wave magnet" loop antenna. We did our usual replacement of all capacitors, checked all the tubes and resistors, replacing where needed. The radio has plenty of volume and receives stations all across the dial. I believe this radio has its original finish, and it's basically perfect, so no reason to do anything to it. The radio has the original knobs, chassis and speaker, a crystal clear Palmquist dial cover, and fitted with a period-correct reproduction grille cloth. This collectable radio is a strong performer, and is priced to sell! 14"W x 8-1/2"H x 7-1/2"D. $495.00. (1600634) |
