Firestone 4-A-1 "The Mercury" (1947)
(plastic tube table radio)
.jpg "Firestone 4-A-1 \"The Mercury\" (1947)") |
 Cute little five-tube set branded as a Firestone Air Chief and dubbed "The Mercury" in print ads of the time. It has been totally recapped, tubes tested strong, new Line cord and my 3.5mm aux cord included at no extra cost. It was missing its back cover and attached loop antenna, so I added a suitable replacement that would fit the compact cabinet. It's not as effective as the original so for distant stations you may need to attach the long wire antenna to an external source (or use the 3.5mm aux cord). The original (crack free) natural finish cabinet has a bold marble swirl pattern. Lighted dial and matching marble swirl knobs add a touch of class on this stylish little radio. Just 8-1/2"W x 6"H x 5-1/2"D. $129.00. (1790447)

I offer a quantity discount on my radios, so check out my other listings and drop me a line if you're interested in
more than one at a time. A Bluetooth/MP3 player 3.5mm cord has been installed at no additional charge when the circuit
design allows for another listening option beyond the standard AM broadcasts. You can plug in to the headphone port of
your device and enjoy the music of your choice through the radio or unplug for standard AM broadcasts.
