This is an excellent example of a very hard to find small Emerson Art Deco mid-1930's radio affectionately known as a "Clockette." The case is made up of three sections that fit together: an ivory Plaskon front, an ivory Plaskon middle, and a black Bakelite back. These were sold in solid Ivory, solid Black and a combination of two-tone Ivory/Black combinations. And with original ivory matching knobs + metal bottom with factory decal. Also has original rubber feet. Other than a very minuscule hairline on top toward back & down in the fitted groove, this case is perfect, no cracks, hairline cracks or repairs. The original brass dial pointer and brass grille cloth are in place. The model number 157 is stamped into the black Bakelite case back panel. A new cloth line cord has also been added to replace the old tattered resistance line cord and looks original. This is a complete electronic restore (will include the two-page schematic) and the radio is playing fine, picking up my local AM stations with short antenna. This chassis is a four-tube set, and it helps to have an external antenna to get local and distant reception. I am including a long length of antenna wire with the radio. The dial light reflects through the red Emerson logo dot on the front when the radio is on. Difficult to find this model in this condition (I rate it a 9.5 out of 10). I package very well & ship promptly. Midget-sized at about 7"W x 7"H x 5-1/2"D.  $325.00. (1640391)
