.jpg "Stewart-Warner R-119 \"Rodney\" (1934)") |
 Stewart-Warner started up in Chicago in the early 1900's. Known to this day for automobile instrumentation, their speedometers were used initially in the Ford model T, and they quickly grew into a large, international company. They visited schools and universities to find the best newly-graduated engineers to design and build their products. They were a diverse company, and manufactured radios and other products starting in 1925, ending radio production in 1954. The R-119 is a six-tube, AM only radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked, replacing where necessary. We installed a new power cord, safety fuse and audio input cable. The cabinet has Walnut and Maple veneers. Stewart-Warner is known for their gorgeous built-in-house cabinets, and this one is no exception. Gary stripped off the old finish. He restored the cabinet, ending up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The original knobs, chassis and 8-inch speaker are with the set. This unique radio is one of those "hard-to-find" sets. It is a good performer, and a great addition to anyone's collection. 18"W x 11"H x 10"D. $679.00. (1600639) |
