THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Here is an uncommon model from an off-brand company. Farnsworth Radios were named after early TV pioneer Philo Farnsworth. In 1927, Farnsworth was the first inventor to transmit a television image comprised of 60 horizontal lines. He also developed the dissector tube, the basis of all future electronic televisions. This was recently restored electronically & is a six-tube strong player across the dial. It features AM & SW with a built in loop antenna. Clean chassis as well. It features four push-buttons on top that can be pre-set to your favorite AM stations. Nice backlit dial. Cabinet looks like a recent restore with the Farnsworth decal & toned band kept original; nice contrast and is just stunning shape with waterfall ends. Inside the cab is a full factory sticker + nice factory stamped model # on bottom. Original grille cloth, dial cover, dial, knobs, etc. The cardboard back appears to be a retro-fit, but looks great & fits nicely (looks orig). 14"W x 8"H x 8-1/2"D.
