Fairbanks-Morse 57 (1936)
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

Fairbanks-Morse 57 (1936)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Here is a rare version of Fairbanks-Morse and I believe this model has never been offered for sale on The Attic (except the one I sold earlier in 2021). Very unique cabinet with closed back, waterfall veneer that rolls over front to back which makes it very, very unusual (never have seen on any other radio) and vents on both ends as well as bottom. I was attracted to the large beautiful back-lit dial (two pilots) and smooth tuning mechanism. Also the large one-piece bullet dial is very unique. I believe it to be all original with no flaws (rate it a 9.7). This is a five-tuber, two bands (BC & SW) and works on both with short antenna. The chassis is very clean and retains its metal bottom cover with factory tags and even a service tag from long ago. 16"W x 10"H x 9-1/2"D; weighs approx. 12 lbs.
