Emerson 108 (1936)
(Bakelite tube tombstone radio w/SW)

Emerson 108 (1936)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Pristine. Here is one of the most collectible of all Emerson radios. Tiny (9-1/2" high). The 108 is now one of the most collectible of all Emersons. It is completely all-original except for its replacement polarized cord for safety. Remarkably, its beautifully marbleized brown Bakelite cabinet (forgive the reflections), including its original complete (also pristine). Bakelite back on the set in excellent condition as well. No chips, cracks, hairlines, or repairs...not even a smudge. It even retains the original factory line antenna. The speaker is perfect as well. The chassis has just been totally restored and rebuilt, cleaned by a professional replacing all caps, weak tubes, resistors, etc. Five-tuber with a big sound across the dial picking up all my locals + SW, tho not much on SW now days. All tubes have been tested and weak tubes replaced. This is a two-band radio with the band switch in the rear. With help from the external antenna provided, this radio is a very strong player and is picking up all my local stations. & beyond. A really nice example of this model, and a must for any collection. This set weighs 8 pounds; 9-1/2"H x 7"W x 6"D.
