(plastic tube table radio)

Imperial L48-J6 (1941)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

This is another pre-war, five-tuber in a large plastic cabinet, this one with a very bold natural finish marble swirl pattern with four mechanical pre-set pushbuttons. Very little is known about this model, which appears to be made by Admiral with a model XJ6 chassis. The cabinet is in very nice condition with a few minor scratches overall. There is some minor cracking on the bottom around the chassis mounting holes, but the cabinet is still structurally sound and these minor superficial bolt stress cracks do not detract from the overall appearance. It has been recapped, controls cleaned & lubricated, so it plays reasonably well, receiving my strong local stations. The original multi-tier loop antenna & back cover was missing, so a standard loop antenna was added. It's not as sensitive to distant stations as a result, but it does have an attached 3.5mm aux cord to allow you to play your own content. 12"W x 8"H x 7-1/2"D.
