Kennedy 63-A (1931)
(wood tube cathedral radio)
|
Here is one of the nicest original & seldom offered for sale cathedrals that I have had in quite some time. Kennedy from South Bend, Indiana was known as the best of the best in 1920s and 30s. In fact, they called themselves "The Royalty Of Radio." They were expensive, not produced in large numbers and today examples rarely appear for sale; this particular cathedral radio is not listed in most of the popular guides and the few price results that could be found. They made very fine radios, and this one is no exception. The radio is simply stunning with a classic veneered front & beautiful grille cut-outs & factory toning that really sets it off. Classic fluted half-columns topped with finials & nice "Kennedy" escutcheon. The grille cloth is era correct replacement. This is a keeper, crafted and finished with a degree of quality and attention to detail that is evident on all Kennedy sets. It was electronically restored by previous owner including a wonderful reproduction silk power cord & Bakelite plug & picks up loud & clear across the dial with short antenna supplied. The shipping weight will be 20 pounds. 16-1/4"H x 14"W x 9"D. $425.00. (1640266)
