Detrola also supplied Western Auto (Truetone) and Sears (Silvertone), just to name two, with thousands of radios. They were the most productive company in the USA, providing radios for department stores and small retailers. The chassis used in the Aria was used in other radios (Detrola 175E) and consoles under different sellers. The 175 is a eight-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) radio. It produces a ton of volume with push-pull audio through a rebuilt Rola eight-inch speaker. The radio features motorized tuning which functions perfectly. The capacitors have been replaced, and all of the resistors and tubes have been checked and replaced where necessary. A safety fuse, audio cable, new tuning eye, antenna lead and a new power cable have been installed. Gary stripped the radio and refinished with a "piano" hand-rubbed lacquer finish.

Arvin 417 "Rhythm Baby" (1936) (Wood tube tombstone radio) Arvin was based in Columbus, Indiana and was the radio brand name manufactured by Noblitt-Sparks. There were four companies with the first starting on 1919 as Indianapolis Air Pump, to car radios in 1933 to home radios in 1935 as Noblitt-Sparks and Arvin. They created "families" of radios, starting with the "Rhythm Series" in 1936 and the "Phantom Series" in 1937. Many of these radios are highly collectable, with the "Rhythm King" being one of the hardest radios to find. There were several "Rhythm" series radios...The King, Queen, Master, Junior, Maid, Bell and Baby, which we have here. The 417 is a four-tube, two-band (AM,police) radio. The capacitors have all been replaced. We checked resistors and tubes and replaced where needed. A safety fuse and polarized power cord were installed. The radio plays well using about 10 feet of antenna, which we have provided. Gary stripped the walnut cabinet and came out with a "piano" lacquer finish. The knobs, speaker and chassis are original. This rare radio is gorgeous and a wonderful addition to anyone's collection! 12"H x 9"W x 7"D. $599.00. (1600455)

Arvin 540T (1951) (Metal tube table radio) A little metal Arvin four-tube set. It is AM only and has a light beige painted case. There are a few paint spots on it and nicks but no bad scratches or chips. It has the original knobs and back. The cord was replaced with a new polarized one for safety (which is needed on these metal sets!). It needs a long wire antenna to work but is sensitive to just about any length added. It picks up local stations and depending on the antenna, can reach out further. I went through the chassis and replaced weak tubes, filters, and caps. It has been aligned as well. It has a nice sound through its 4-inch speaker. This little set would look nice on your desk at home or office. 8-1/4"W x 5-1/2"H x 4-1/4"D. $100.00. (1700075)

Atwater Kent 80 (1931) SOLD! (Wood tube cathedral radio) Here is a “Grand” Atwater Kent cathedral which has to be one of the most desired & attractive of the AK cathedrals, at least from my view. The cabinet design of this one is simply gorgeous, with its twisting carved (“twisted rope”) pilasters supporting an arch with diagonal grained veneer + the burled front lower panel. The sides and arched top are walnut veneered, so this radio is a beauty from any angle. This is an excellent example of a highly collectible & classic from the Depression Era. AK, a Philly company. had a reputation for making the finest radios of this era. I believe this radio to be all original including knobs, speaker, grille cloth, tube shields, etc. I was told by the previous owner that it was recently restored and I have found no reason to believe otherwise. The chassis is very clean. This radio has a lighted dial and displays as well as it plays. It weighs 30+ lbs, but I do pack very well to ensure safe delivery. 19"H x 16"W x 10"D. $579.00. (1640264)

Atwater Kent 82 (1932) (Wood tube cathedral radio) The AK 82 has to be counted among the most beautiful cathedrals ever made. The cabinet is stylish and ornate, with the signature spiral pillars, and their unique indented button blocks at the top. 18 coats of lacquer and three sanding operations produced a very nice, slick finish. Receiver performance is quite good, and the sound from the perfect 8-inch speaker is deep and rich. I finished the inside, rear and bottom. All new caps, including stuffing the originals, resistors and new wire as necessary. Full alignment. A nice, evenly illuminated dial. One small veneer repair at the bottom rear that is less than perfect. The model 82 had one of the very first efforts at AVC, employing a "control tube" to vary the gain of the first two stages. It will take some getting used to, but the sound is worth it. For knock-down, drag-out, eye catching curb appeal, you will be hard pressed to beat this radio. I put a great deal of effort into this beauty. I hope you will agree it was worth it. AKs were among the best radios of their time, and this one is a great example of that commitment to quality. Requires an external antenna. 19"H x 15-1/2"W x 10"D. $1,200.00. (1680109)

Atwater Kent 856 (1935) (Wood tube tombstone radio) As beautiful as it is rare, this Atwater Kent 856 from 1935 is a real eye catcher. AK also gave it some cool features, like a dial that lights the selected band, and a two-speed tuner that you can switch from high to low without removing your hand from the knob. The front is ornate and fitted with gorgeous booked veneer. The chassis is a very good performer with amazing sound from the perfect 8-inch speaker. This came to me with two coats of lead based white paint on it. After 12 hours of scrubbing I got 99.9% of it off, but damaged the front veneer in one spot (see photos). It really isn't terrible, and you don't notice it if you are not looking for it. The gloss finish is the slickest I have ever done. 18 coats were needed to cover up the grain after cleaning the white paint. While it retains a few specks and dings, it is crazy nice. A lot of people would call it piano finish. I replaced all the caps, most of the resistors and most of the rubber wiring. A full set of tubes that all test new for long service life. This thing was ruined when I got it, but now it is pretty much a show stopper. $849.00. (1680104)

Bang & Olufsen Jet 509K (1952) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) B&O was founded in 1925 by Peter Bang and Svend Olufsen. In 1927, they moved into a factory and developed a radio, which debuted in 1929, the "Five Lamper" and its peripheral "Type D" loudspeaker. Powered from the receiver, the Five Lamper only required connection to an electrical outlet to play. This radio was also the first unit to be encased in a walnut cabinet. In January, 1945, the Germans bombed B&O's factory, since both B&O refused to collaborate and its employees were suspected Danish Resistance members. In the 1950s, B&O, assisted by Denmark's renowned architects and designers, developed components that earned praise for aesthetic appeal. They were rewarded in 1978 when NY's Museum of Modern Art arranged a 39-piece exhibition of B&O's products, an honor only bestowed on three other companies during the 20th century. Our model has five tubes, AM, LW, + two SW Bands, but no FM. Richard repaired one 1N4007 rectifier, one AC power plug, re-wired 220VAC to 120VAC, and aligned IF and RF. The cabinet was repaired. $675.00. (1300085)

Braun PC3SV Turntable (1959-1961) (Plastic phonograph) Braun was founded by Max Braun in 1921 and started making radios and turntables in 1929. By the mid-1950s, the Braun brand was influenced by the German concept of modern industrial design and its combination of functionality and technology. One of its design leaders was Dieter Rams, who was a key figure in the German design renaissance of the late 1950s and 1960s. Dieter, along with Hans Gugelot, designed the famous SK4 record player, aka "Snow White's Coffin." Dieter also designed our shown PC3SV turntable as well as the "D" series (D25-D47) of high-quality 35 mm slide projectors. He and Dietrich Lubs are also credited with the design of a classic range of Braun alarm clocks which began with the AB 20 in 1987. Braun continued producing alarm clocks, of this type, through 2005. Dieter Ram retired in 1995. This turntable is constructed from modern plastic and functions properly. Richard Majestic replaced one P-186 cartridge and one audio cable. He also converted the turntable motor from 50Hz to 60Hz to play 33-1/3 RPM LPs. $625.00. (1300084)

Brunswick 12 (1930) (Wood tube tombstone radio) Here is a really special radio!

Note the fine detail of the exquisite of the face and the spectacular grille. The finish is original and all other parts, with the exception of a period correct speaker cloth. The radio is a very early seven tube super-het and it plays quite well. I could not add the mini-jack cable to this radio. Your solution is below if this is of interest.

They operate from a central location on the face of the radio, with a replacement on/off switch on the back power cord. Built like a battleship, this is a collector's prize! AM transmitter and Bluetooth options are available starting at $25! Click here for details! 20-12"H x 17-1/2"W x 12"D. $1,095.00. (0961773)

Climax (model unknown, 1932?) ON SALE! (Wood tube cathedral radio) Most of us that have tried to "research" early Climax radios know there isn't much on the internet about them. Most of the info is a guessing game, and comparing them to known models. I found a few models that were similar to this radio, probably manufactured early 1930's. This radio was originally a five-tube, AM only TRF set. All that remains from the original chassis is the transformer and tuner. We rebuilt this set into an AA5 radio with a ton of features. We installed a solid state AM tuner, built a 5K3 amplifier similar to the same amp found in small Fender guitar amps. This chassis has a contour tone control, a brand new 6-inch speaker, multiple 1/4" outputs for an external speakers. This radio functions perfectly as a tube radio, but can also be used to play guitar and other instruments through. Gary stripped the cabinet and came out with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. This radio would appeal to a collector as a functioning, rare Climax radio, but also to musicians and hi-fi enthusiasts with its audio versatility. We included a 1/4" input with cable adapter to access your external devices. Please call us for more info on this unique radio!Was $699.00, now $599.00. (1600472)

You will never find a better example of this rare set, if you find one at all. 9-3/4"W x 7-1/4"H x 5-3/4"D. $269.00. (0620216)

Climax "Emerald" (Oval Dial Version) SOLD! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Here's a rare and beautiful gem indeed! A triumph of design and elegant beauty, this Emerald was nearly unrecognizable when found, the cabinet coated with house paint, the chassis scattered in many pieces. The cabinet has been professionally refinished with attention to original details. The chassis has been restored; caps replaced, tubes checked. It sports its original eye tube, still decently strong. This beauty has a few small flaws. There's slight damage on the back of the dial, which shows noticeably only when the radio is on and the dial is backlit. The original clear disc on the tuning system was destroyed; a period repair replaced it with a metal disc, so only 30% of the dial lights up (see photo.) There is also a crack in the bottom fin that is not too noticeable. The radio is much better for looks than performance. That said, it's been aligned to original specs and picks up AM and shortwave across the dial with the attached long wire antenna. I'm offering free shipping on this radio to anywhere in the continental USA. This radio will be very well-packed and insured for the full amount. If you have any questions or would like more photos, please contact me! $1,495.00. (1560028)

Climax UE-64 (1938) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Climax is one of those names that gets the attention of many collectors, mainly due to a couple of really coveted models they made like the streamlined "Ruby" & "Emerald." This one has styling cues like them & that nice multi-colored, large, backlit dial. I call this one "Little Brother" due to the dial & similarity like the wrap-around ends & recessed front. Original grille cloth, knobs, speaker, dial, pointer, etc. with a very clean chassis. This is a seven-tube super-het clean chassis with both AM & SW. Repro cardboard back. Electronically restored, plays with great volume, clarity, and selectivity picking up all my locals & beyond with short wire antenna. Bright green working eye tube. The recent cabinet refinish looks very attractive. I would judge it a 9.5 on 10 scale. Climax Radio & Television merged with General Television in early 30's & a lot of their radios were turned out in the Factory "A," Factory "B" era making it very difficult to tag a model # per se on some sets. Based on the seven-tube complement, I feel this is one of those cases & likely a late version of the UE-64. First time seen & listed here or elsewhere that I can find. 18-1/2"W x 8-1/2"H x 9"D.Was $650.00, now $550.00. (1640261)

Continental 62 (1934) SOLD! (Wood tube table radio) Continental Radio was a contract factory located in Chicago, Ill. They primarily made radios for all of the popular catalogue houses which were the primary source of radios in the era. America was hugely rural and catalogues were like today's Walmart. America shopped by USPS mail. The chassis is a clean and simple five-tube super-het offering a very good level of performance on the broadcast band. The radio is a more moderately size set, which allowed the user to take a radio into another smaller sized room of the house. The cabinet has been nicely refinished and the radio retains the original speaker cloth and knobs. My technician has done a fine professional repair to the radio is it plays extremely well. I was impressed with the unusual form of the radio and it highlighting the oversized oval dial. Clearly, a radio to delight! The mini-jack will allow you to connect this radio to any kind of modern device so you can listen to the radio or any other kind of content. AM transmitter and Bluetooth options are available starting at $25! Click here for details! $495.00. (0961651)

Crosley 11-120U "Dashboard" (1951) (Plastic tube clock radio) This is a nice Crosley Dashboard radio from 1951 being sold for display or restoration. The original white color needs some touch-up. The knobs are in place and the clock is working quietly keeping time. The brass plated escutcheons have some normal wear. The clock plastic cover has stress cracks near the on-off knob. The radio plays local AM stations with some static which I attribute mostly to the many fluorescent lights in my shop. The case has no cracks, chips, repairs, or hairline cracks. There is an appliance plug on the left side. The original label is still on the bottom. About 13"W x 7-1/2"H x 7"D. $120.00. (1800049)

Crosley 11-122U "Dashboard" (1951) SOLD! (Bakelite tube clock radio) Here is one of the cleanest, all-original examples of this iconic Crosley "Dashboard" marque, the model 11-122U in Chartreuse, that I have come across in almost 40 years of radio collecting. It is indeed all-original, from the painted Bakelite cabinet to the power cord to its back panel, bottom label and feet. The original paint retains its factory floor luster, its escutcheons have very little wear or tarnish, and the case is in mint condition free of any cracks, chips or hairlines, just a couple of teeny tiny flea bites you'd have trouble finding. The clock works, and the chassis has been restored with all caps and weak tubes replaced. Simply an excellent example of a classic radio that picks up my local stations across the entire AM dial loud and clear. Ready to display and play! Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. About 13W" x 7-1/2"H x 7"D. $676.00. (1750118)

Crosley 14AG (1940) SOLD! (Wood tube table radio) This is set is a classic example of one brand copying another. The far more common Zenith 6D525, affectionately known as the "toaster" due to its bold grille design, uses the exact same Ingraham designed grille as this Crosley from a year earlier! Biggest difference between the two models is this Crosley has five tubes while the Zenith has six, but the Crosley has the advantage with a two-position tone control and two bands (AM & Shortwave), neither of which are on the Zenith. This example features excellent reception with its built-in loop antenna. It's been gone through with all new filter and paper capacitors, strong tested set of tubes, controls cleaned and lubricated. New line cord. Cabinet was totally refinished with toners and topped with a light spray of clear enamel for durability and sheen. Solid brass escutcheon polished to a beautiful luster. 12-1/4"W x 9-1/2"H x 7"D. $199.00. (1790202)

Crosley 63-TJ "Victory" (1946) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Here is a beautiful, seldom offered for sale and somewhat rare Crosley "Victory" model and an obvious tribute to victory in WWII. It must have been one of the first radios off Crosley's assembly line after they switched back to making civilian products. The large airplane dial-pointer, the use of Foreign and American instead of SW and BC to label the bands, and the proud statement that it is a Crosley "Victory Model" on its colorful large dial with red, white, blue stripes... kind of says it all. The beautiful dial is lit with two pilot lights which is simply gorgeous. This radio survives to honor those who fought and gave their lives to protect America even to this day. What a trophy and memorial to our freedom effort! Recent complete restore inside and out with factory knobs, speaker, dial, clear dial cover, full back and new era correct grille cloth. It has a built-in loop antenna with provisions for connecting an external antenna. It has a deep clear sound and picks up stations across the dial. It also picks up SW with longer antenna wire. Nice clean chassis. About 15"W x 10"H x 8"D.Was $750.00, now $595.00. (1640259)

Crosley 124 "Playboy" (1932) (Wood tube cathedral radio) The 124 Playboy was a fairly good seller for Crosley in the early 30s. It has a large, substantial look to it. They used the space for a very good sounding 8-inch speaker and a well designed chassis. If I had known then what I know now I would have scrapped this one. I had to replace the veneer over the arch, make the tube cover and chassis metal pan. I had to paint the chassis. My genius nephew-in-law 3-D printed the escutcheon for me. The top had a tiny bit of ripple which I didn't notice, so when I wet sanded the ten base coats of semigloss, I wound up with that showing through the otherwise nice, slick finish. It isn't as bad as the photo booth lighting made it look in the top photo. It has the early 30s antenna type volume control, so you have to crank it up to get weak stations. Requires an external antenna. It has some shortcomings and I'm pricing it accordingly, but it is still a pretty darn cool radio. 17"W x 17"H x 11"D. $300.00. (1680127)
-
Crosley 124 "Playtime" (1931) (Wood other radio) BC. This is the only known variant of the Playtime clock radio that has an original windup clock! One winding gives up to twelve days of operation of

Crosley 154 (1933) (Wood tube cathedral radio) This adorable little Crosley 154 came to me in absolutely horrible condition, but it is the only example of this radio I am aware of, so I wanted to restore it. The front veneer was in very bad condition, but I spruced it up the best I could. A lot of flaws remain in the otherwise nice finish after 80 years of obviously hard living. The photo finish is gone from the lower left and right columns. The speaker is not original and has a couple of patches by a previous servicer. I had to paint the chassis. Crosley employed regeneration in the IF circuit to give it the gain of a five-tuber. It has the 1930s style antenna volume control, so you have to turn it up to pick up weak stations. The gold sparkle in the luxurious Brown Lurex grille cloth doesn't show up in the photos but is very elegant. While it has some shortcomings, this radio is extremely rare. None has ever sold on the attic, and the one on Radio Museum is this one. Despite its blemishes, this really is a little cutie, and if you're a Crosley guy, I'm betting you don't have one of these. Requires an external antenna. 12-1/2"H x 10"W x 8"D. $299.00. (1680106)

Crosley 167 "Dual Fiver" (1934) ON SALE! (Wood tube tombstone radio) Powell Crosley started The Crosley Manufacturing Company in Cincinnati in 1921 and quickly became the number one seller of low-cost radios. By the early 1930's, they were replaced by Philco as the low-cost leader. They later produced home appliances, automobiles, and produced products for the war effort. The "Dual Fiver" cathedral came out in 1934, and was followed by a later production model, a tombstone design which we have here. The "Dual Fiver" is a five-tube, two-band (AM,Police) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. We installed a safety fuse, polarized power cord, audio input cable and a new antenna lead. Gary did his usual masterful cabinet work. The Mahogany, Zebrawood and Birch veneers are beautifully refinished, and show the highlights of these gorgeous veneers. The original knobs, chassis and speaker are with the set. The correct green-lit dial is in perfect condition. This later-production "Dual Fiver" is hard to find, and never in this pristine condition! 14"H x 11"W x 8"D.Was $649.00, now $599.00. (1600452)
-
Crosley 168 (1933) (Wood tube cathedral radio w/SW) BC+1SW. This set sat somewhere in a paint shop and was a slate grey with overspray totally obscuring the beautiful inlayed veneer cabinet with a vivid Zebrawood arch. Chassis is a very good performer with excellent audio and a tone control, and the original knobs and grille cloth cap off the original look of the set. Auxiliary input installed, fully restored and warranted. 16"H x 13-1/2"W x 8-1/2"D. $475.00. (0100177)

Crosley 615 "Cruiser" (1936) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) The Crosley Radio Corporation was founded in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1921 by Powell Crosby. He produced radios at a high volume, and copied the "assembly line" concept, earning him the moniker "The Henry Ford of Radio." He later manufactured appliances, cars and contributed the "proximity fuse" during the war. The 615 is a six-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A safety fuse, antenna lead and a new power cord were installed. A full alignment was performed, making this radio a strong performer across the dial. Gary stripped and refinished the gorgeous Walnut cabinet, ending up with a beautiful "piano" lacquer finish. The chassis, speaker and knobs are original, and a new crystal-clear dial cover was added. This radio would be a wonderful addition to any collection and can be yours in a matter of days! 16"H x 12"W x 9"D. $699.00. (1600403)
-
Crosley 1014 "Centurian" (1935)
(Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Here is a recent estate find that I reluctantly am making available. Simply beautiful & near perfect. This has to be the largest or one of the largest Crosley tombstones ever made. It is a high tube count, ten-tube, shouldered tombstone which I believe to be all original including nearly flawless finish, knobs, grille cloth, dial, 8-inch speaker, etc. Also the chassis is super clean. The front burl panels on either side of that big lighted dial really make it pop. I cannot find out much info on it & the model appears to have never been offered here on the Attic. The tube count alone makes this set quite special. I'm not sure if/when it was electronically restored, but it plays very strong on BC + picked up couple of stations on SW with short wire antenna. Tone control also is a working plus. If this is going to be a daily player, I would recommend verifying any cap, tube needs, etc.; otherwise it is a great addition to any collection. Notice the beautiful lit dial showing Crosley + VOA Antenna + two worlds logo. RMA tag intact + tag of dealer in Georgetown, KY. Long since gone. 19-7/8"H x 16-1/4"W x 11-1/2"D. $479.00. (1640277) -

The chocolate brown Bakelite case with red marbling still retains its showroom shine. The push buttons with original AM station call letters work as designed. Its dial with crystal clear dial cover shines beautifully in the dark. The back panel, label inside the back panel, and power plug are all original to this set.

Davison Haynes Aero ON SALE! (Wood tube cathedral radio) The only identification is Aero on the escutcheon and the number 15997 on the label. This is an extremely rare radio and is the only example I'm aware of. There is little documentation about the company and it appears they were only in business from 1930 to 31. The chassis was assembled at Gilfillan Bros. Plant in L.A. The chassis is the same used in their model 92 and 93 consoles. The radio is in beautiful condition inside and out. The chassis is super clean with no corrosion. The set was serviced by the former owner and plays fine with strong reception. The cabinet has been refinished. The grille cloth is a replacement, but I believe the knobs are original to the set.

Detrola 146 (1937) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) My latest offering from the Motor City is this attractive, fairly large Detrola 146 table radio. It came to me with a previous restoration over several deep "witness marks" on the top. I was afraid to sand through the veneer, so I cleaned it up and put 15 coats of lacquer over it. A poor attempt at veneer replacement on the lower trim forced me to replace that with American Walnut. The resulting finish is slick, shiny, and gorgeous. A full set of high testing tubes, all new capacitors and resistors as necessary. I stuffed the original filter caps. The speaker was replaced by a previous servicer. It has a couple of small patches.

Emerson 414 "Wheat" (1933) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio) Also known as "Fleur-de-Lis," the model 414 dates from 1933. The chassis was also used in the Mickey Mouse and Snow White sets produced by Emerson. These sets are a rare find in excellent all original condition down to the power cord.

Emerson AM-169 (1937) (Wood tube table radio w/SW/Ingraham cabinet) You are looking at a really beautiful table radio. The liaison of Emerson Radio and Ingraham Cabinet Company is legendary in the radio world. Ingraham was the premier clock case maker of the era employing the most dramatic designs and exotic veneers.

Emerson AM-187 "Pagoda" (1937) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Here is one of the most unusual and seldom seen repwood sets made. These sets were antiqued by hand from the factory; Silver leaf was used as well as traces of red and shadowing. These sets were expensive, as this is the best performing repwood set I've ever owned. Most repwood sets were cheap radios that did not perform well. There isn't much info out there on these as there weren't many made, and very seldom does one come up for sale. The information was given to me by an avid Emerson collector, and a collector that collects nothing but repwood sets. This set still retains its original wood back, with its model number stamped in it. The chassis is clean and rust free and the speaker is flawless. The chassis was electronically restored, cleaning all pots and switches, changing of all filter and paper caps, new cloth line cord, etc. This set has a lot of volume and picks up a lot of stations across the dial. The set has both BC and SW bands. This is a very unique set and I've had it for ten years; the last one I've seen for sale was this one. 14-1/2"W x 9"H x 7"D. $595.00. (0620206)

Emerson BF207 (1938)
(Plaskon tube table radio w/SW) This is a five-tube plus Ballast set, receiving both AM & shortwave and using an interesting combination of full-size ST tubes along with an undocumented later production change from a 6A7 to a 6K8 octal. Even more interesting is the unusual break away Plaskon cabinet that comes apart in three pieces! The front panel and wrap around top/side shell are all molded in solid ivory Plaskon while the back is molded in solid black. The cabinet is in overall nice condition with one minor heat related stress crack on the side that is still solid. Between the ballast, rectifier, and output tubes, it gets very warm inside there! The chassis has been gone through with all new filter and paper capacitors, strong tested set of tubes, controls cleaned and lubricated. New line cord. Plays well with just the long wire antenna extended. 12"W x 8-1/2"H x 8"D. $199.00. (1790207) -
Emerson BJ-210 (1938) (Wood tube table radio w/Ingraham cabinet) Here's another classic Emerson with a stylish Ingraham cabinet. The black and red vinyl inlay around the bottom certainly gives this radio some character, perhaps a simple identity from several Emerson models that are very similar in size. The BJ-210 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,Police) AC/DC radio. The BJ is a chassis designation telling us that it was manufactured by Belmont. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. We added a new power cord, safety fuse and antenna lead. (We do not install audio input cables on AC/DC radios due to electrical shock hazard) This radio performs well across the dial with plenty of volume. Gary did a great job stripping the old finish and applied a beautiful "piano" lacquer finish. The original knobs, chassis and speaker are present. This is a restored Emerson that plays well and is priced right. This radio should perform well for a long time! 14"W x 9-1/2"H x 8-1/4"D. $449.00. (1600490)

Emerson CH-256 "Stradivarius" (1939)
SOLD! (Wood tube table radio) Perhaps one of the most beautiful and identifiable Ingraham cabinets is the violin-shaped "Stradivarius" manufactured in 1939 for Emerson. There were two versions: one in Quilted Maple and the other, which we have here, in Walnut. The "Strad" is a five-tube, AM only, AC/DC radio. It's all about the cabinet folks, but this radio performs very well too. This radio was restored by the previous owner. All of the capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord and antenna lead were added. This is really nice example of this radio and it really does perform well across the dial. The beautifully figured Walnut cabinet has been finished in a satin lacquer. The original knobs, speaker and chassis are with the set. The dial cover is crystal-clear. This radio is better than when it came from the factory! 11"W x 6"H x 5-1/2"D. $1,495.00. (1600507) -
Emerson CS-320 (1939) SOLD! (Wood tube table radio w/SW/Ingraham cabinet) As I have mentioned in previous ads, Emerson had an arrangement with Ingraham Clock Company to do most of their radio cabinets. Although Ingraham did do cabinets for other manufacturers, their biggest customer by far was Emerson. Ingraham cabinets are easy to recognize because of their curvy and angular Art Deco designs. The CS-320 is no exception. The radio is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) AC/DC set. All of the capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord and antenna lead were installed.
This is a rare set as it has a short wave band too. Most of the Emerson table radios were AM only. Gary did a fantastic job refinishing the Walnut cabinet. There is a nice inlay of Maple on the set, and two unique brass balls on the front corners. The original Ingraham badging, knobs, chassis and speaker are with the radio. For the Emerson collector looking for that rare model, or just a beautiful set to grace your collection, this radio is ready to go! 13"W x 9"H x 7"D. $649.00. (1600413)

Emerson DS-436 (1940-1941) (Wood tube table radio w/Ingraham cabinet) When I was a kid, Cadillac was the king of cars. If a radio was going to be a Cadillac, it would be this awesome Emerson DS346. This thing has features galore. Linear scale indicators for volume and tone. A bright new tuning eye. Huge, perfect, "shock mounted" 8-inch speaker that sounds just incredible, driven by the perfectly matched 6L6 push-pull outputs. A very well designed chassis that has a unique mounting, where it is suspended on rubber washers instead of sitting on the base like most are. The Ingraham cabinet is very stylish and ornate. A couple of "witness marks" too deep to sand, so I filled them before covering the cabinet with 18 coats of lacquer for a nice, slick finish. A not too bad stain on the top. The chassis was restored when I got it, and the workmanship looks good. Receives well on the internal antenna with a wire for external. These are rare. Only two have sold, both last year. If you missed out on those, here's your chance to own one very impressive radio. 18"W x 12-1/2"H x 12"D. $699.00. (1680122)

Emerson L-141 "Cube" (1937)
(Wood tube table radio w/SW/Ingraham cabinet) The Emerson Phonograph Company was formed in New York City in 1918. They started making radios in 1924, and produced the first phonograph/radio combination. By WWII, it held one sixth of the U.S. radio market. With the advent of television, their sales more than doubled by 1950. Emerson is still in business today. The L-141 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,SW-disabled) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with Mylar equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A safety fuse, new antenna lead, audio input cable and a new power cord were installed. The Ingraham cabinet has Burl Walnut and Walnut veneers with maple and ebony inlays. Gary stripped the cabinet, and ended up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The original chassis, speaker and knobs are with the set, as are the Emerson and Ingraham badging. The "cube" design was a rare radio for Emerson, but they wanted to get in on the popularity and sales of the cubes.

FADA 43 Cathedral (1930) (Wood tube cathedral radio) You are looking at a very early and extremely scarce early cathedral radio. The five-tube chassis plays on Broadcast only on an earlier type of circuit call a "TRF." I had my cabinet pro do the refinish and he discovered the inky super dark finish was covering Rosewood. At that point, I gave him artistic license to highlight the stunning wood. He choose a super high gloss lacquer hand rub finish to accentuate the gorgeous wood. Please excuse the photos as with the finish being so glossy, there is a bit of reflection and bounce from the flash. There is a bit of uneven areas due to the usual shrinkage of the wood, which is now 88 years old. Les has completed his professional level repairs and the radio plays very well for the more primitive type of circuit. He also added the mini-jack connector allowing you addition of an input device. AM transmitter and Bluetooth options are available starting at $25! Click here for details! This is a rare and beautiful radio and highly collectible! 18"H x 15-7/8"W x 10-1/2"D. $1,499.00. (0961467)

Fairbanks-Morse 57 (1936) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Here is a rare version of Fairbanks-Morse and I believe this model has never been offered for sale on The Attic (except the one I sold earlier in 2021).

This is a five-tuber, two bands (BC & SW) and works strong on both with short antenna (complete recent restore).

It features a beautiful and unique Ingraham cabinet, and is one of the more popular models with collectors. This six-tube, two-band (SB, SW) radio, was the first one I collected.

General Electric 676 (1955) (Plastic transistor shirtpocket radio) Offered here is this hard-to-find iconic transistor from General Electric. This was one of the first transistors to hit the market debuting in early 1955. It is a four-transistor unit that was powered by a strange 13.5 volt battery that has a weird 3-prong plug. So don't plan on using this as a daily player as it is untested. But as a display unit, it shows well as it has been well preserved. This gem is a great addition to any collection which is trying to feature the initial pioneers of USA made transistor radios, it is clean and without damage. This is also a nice size at only 5-1/2"W and has a solid construction. More photos available upon request. $195.00. (0520661)

General Electric E-81 (1936)
(Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Radios with an excellent original finish are getting harder to find these days. This General Electric E-81 is all original -- finish, knobs, escutcheon, grille cloth, and dial cover -- and it looks great! GE radios from the mid-1930s are a bit under appreciated; they are top notch performers and have excellent audio fidelity. Although it wasn't the top-of-the-line for GE, this one still has some high end touches -- a two speed tuning mechanism and a 6L6 audio output stage for tons of good quality volume. It covers three bands -- the usual BC band, as well as SW1 (1.8 - 6 MHz) and SW2 (6 - 18 MHz). The eight-tube chassis has been thoroughly restored to perform like new, including new capacitors throughout, new resistors where needed (including Candohm replacement), a replacement volume control, a new vintage-style power cord, and a meticulous RF/IF alignment. You'll find this radio is a "keeper" for many reasons. 19-1/2"H x 16"W x 11-1/4"D. $425.00. (1310155) -

General Electric F-81 (1937) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) When it came to consumer satisfaction in the 1930's, General Electric tops the list. They made almost every kind of product for the home, including radios. The quality of the production was terrific and before you is a reason why. This unusual radio is crafted out of African ribbon mahogany. The design was edgy for this timeline and the combination of design and material very special. The cabinet looks to have been refinished at an earlier time with the factory installed speaker cloth and unusually shaped wood knobs. Inside is a very finely engineered eight-tube super-het chassis offering both am and shortwave channels. My tech has done a complete restoration and the set performs as new. His work includes our mini-jack for the ability to direct connect the radio to any modern type of device.AM transmitter and Bluetooth options are available starting at $25!

General Electric J62 (1940/1941) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) The unique and attractive J62 "jewel box" was a very good seller for GE and quite a few have survived. This one had been stripped, stained and varnished when I got it. You can't strip wiped on stain, so I touched it up the best I could and put ten coats of lacquer and two sanding operations on it. Still some grain and joints showing. I was able to remove most of the stain from the latticework and grille to give it back some contrast. The last guy left the GE logo, so there was nothing I could do about that. The back cover has a small piece broken off near the bottom. All that said, the chassis is well made and a fairly good performer. The sound is surprisingly good from the perfect 5-inch speaker. Receives well on the internal antennas, with a terminal for external. I made a cable for the phono jack. As with the original, you tune off-station and connect your mobile device. My usual thorough restoration, with all high testing tubes for long service life. Despite its minor shortcomings, this is still a very nice little radio. Broadcast and short wave. 15"W x 10-1/2"H x 8-1/2"D. $299.00. (1680116)
-
General Electric J-64 (1941) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) This is one of General Electric's largest pre-war table radios. The J-64 comes with a big 6-1/2" speaker for a big sound and weighs in at 22 pounds. It certainly wasn't designed to be very portable! The six-tube three-band radio comes with AM and two Shortwave bands. There is excellent reception on all three bands, although there isn't much on Shortwave these days. Cosmetically, this radio looks beautiful and has been stripped and professional refinished using the finest lacquers available. New decals were also applied. The grille cloth is also new. All of the capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents and all out of tolerance resistors have been replaced. A new polarized power cord has been installed as well. I left the station tabs blank so that you can insert the tabs for the stations that are nearest your location. In summary, a powerful sounding, beautiful looking radio from the excellent engineers at General Electric. 18-1/2"W x 10"H x 9-1/4"D. $349.00. (1780020)

General Electric J-100 (1932) SOLD! (Wood tube cathedral radio) I have been collecting for over 45 years and refurbishing these sets for over a decade to sell online... yet never had this model before. The radio in a similar cabinet came in six, eight, and ten-tube variations and this is the granddaddy model with ten tubes! The radio is a very early super-het with a massive speaker and as you can imagine was the best of breed in this timeline. The radio cosmetics are excellent. The speaker cloth is period correct reproduction and the wood knobs original to the radio. Clearly a classic cathedral radio and its entire design resemble the fine European gothic churches. My tech has completed his professional repairs and I found the radio to be extremely robust in its reception. He has added a fine cloth covered power cord and new Bakelite plug in a duplication of the way it left the factory 87+ years ago. The radio has been fitted with a mini-jack to allow a direct connection to any modern device! AM transmitter and Bluetooth options are available starting at $25! Click here for details!

General Electric Unknown Model (Bakelite tube table radio w/SW) Not quite sure exactly what this model is. It may be a model L44J5 and the chassis design is similar to a LCP596.

Gilfillan 63X (1936) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) There were many west coast manufactures that were regional in distribution and seldom seen east of the Rockies.

Graybar GT-8 by RCA (1933) (Wood tube tombstone radio) Graybar Electric was one of the premier electronic distributors in the 1930's.

Like so many other businesses, they want a piece of the consumer market and chose the best company of the early era, RCA.

The speaker cloth is original and perfect along with fancy and embossed factory installed knobs.

Grunow 470 (1935) (Wood tube tombstone radio) After Grunow merged with US Radio and Television to form General Household Utilities Corporation in 1933, they still sold radios under the Grunow name. This smallish Grunow 470 tombstone, while only a four-tuber, surprised me by having a massive 8-inch speaker crammed into it. Consequently, the sound is the best of any four-tube radio I have ever restored. The cabinet has a bit of grain still showing on the sides, but otherwise a very nice finish. A previous servicer replaced the On/Off switch with an On/Off/Tone control, which works well, so I left it. It has the early 30s antenna volume control so you have to crank the volume for weak stations. Reception from the meticulously restored chassis is good for a four-tuber. Noteworthy is the interesting practice of mounting the rectifier on top of the power transformer, the logic of which is lost on me. I had to make a replacement for the missing tuning knob. All in all, if you want great sound at a great price, this should be what you are looking for. Requires an external antenna. 14"H x 12"W x 7"D. $250.00. (1680126)

Grunow 550 "Chromefront" (1934) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio) Starting in 1928 in Chicago, Grigsby-Grunow produced the famous and high performing Majestic brand radios. They hired the brightest engineering talent available and became one of the most prolific radio and tube manufacturing companies of the time. In spite of the depression in 1929, Majestic radios were very successful and were even distributed in Europe and Africa. By 1931, Mr. Grunow started General Household Utilities Co. and produced radios under the Grunow name. The 550 is a five-tube, AM only, AC/DC radio. The chassis was completely rebuilt using modern capacitors. All of the resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord and antenna lead were installed. An external audio cable is not available for this AC/DC set. Most of the finish is original (restored) except that Gary did redo the top. The original knobs and speaker are with the radio. A reproduction of the original cloth was installed. The chrome is in perfect condition, and the radio performs perfectly! This seldom seen early Grunow is ready to grace your collection... make it yours! 12"W x 8"H x 5-1/2"D.Was $699.00, now $599.00. (1600389)

Grunow 750 "World Cruiser" (1935)
(Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) We have mentioned the bankruptcy and split up in 1932 of Grigsby-Grunow based in Chicago. By the time the model 750 came out, they had recaptured the market with quality radios and exquisite cabinetry. The 750 was Grunow's top-of-the-line table radio in 1935. This large seven-tube, four-band (SB,SWx2,police) beauty sported twin gangs on the AM tuner for greater sensitivity and lots of volume through the original 8-inch Grunow speaker. Their cabinet work played second fiddle to no one, and the 750 is no exception. All of the capacitors were replaced. The resistors and tubes checked and replaced where needed. A safety fuse, power cord and external audio cable were added. Gary stripped the cabinet and refinished it using the best grain fillers, toners and finished with a "piano" lacquer finish. Notice the book matched Walnut in the front with contrasting colors. The original knobs, chassis and speaker are included. This stunning radio will grace any collection, and it can be yours in a matter of days! 20"H x 16-1/4"W x 12"D. $895.00. (1600508) -

Gulbranson 1A (1938) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) You are looking at an extraordinary radio. The radio is of the highest quality electronics made by Wells-Gardner under the Gulbranson Bros label. The radio is housed in a unique cabinet of striped mahogany which was imported from New Zealand from an affiliated company. Clearly the radio is in a unique shape and a relatively large cabinet offering a big sound quality. Wells supplied the chassis which is a super sophisticated eight-tube super-het offering both am and shortwave. The eye tube winks with great sensitivity when you tune from station to station, along with a tone control to better taper the sound to your tastes. The finish is terrific and original along with the factory installed knobs, and the speaker cloth is a period correct reproduction pattern. My technician has completed his professional repairs and the radio is quite impressive. I have never had this model in the years of my restoration efforts and doubt you will see another. A mini-jack has been installed for the direct connection to any modern device offering you unlimited choice of listening pleasure. AM transmitter and Bluetooth options are available starting at $25!

Herofon Petite AM-FM (1958) (Wood tube table radio w/FM) Ove Hede Nielsen began making radios in 1928 in a corner of his father's bicycle making plant. Annual productions of Herofon radios reached 10,000 units in 1939. In 1955, the Herofon name was changed to Arena and began simultaneously producing TVs. By 1960, Arena was the largest Danish producer of radios. Into the 1960s, Arena's development department created the component system, which led to faster repairs and the production of turntables and speakers. Arena's fortunes turned downward in 1970 when they suffered a devastating plant fire, the second of three, in the Hede Nielsen Factory's history. 12,000 radios, 4000 TVs, 20,000 speakers, and 1,000 turntables were lost in the blaze. Subsequently, Arena was sold to Rank Bush Murphy, from England, their business deteriorated, and employees ran the business with no success. In 1975, Scandinavia's most modern radio and TV factory closed, forever. Our model has four tubes, AM and two SW bands, one speaker, and a beautiful teak wood case. It plays well. Our restorer added one power transformer to aid in the 220VAC conversion, and replaced one UABC80 NOS tube, one UL84 NOS tube, one UF89 NOS tube, and one UCH81 NOS tube. $800.00. (1300082)

Howard 5G-T TRF (1932) (Wood tube tombstone radio) This is a tuned radio frequency radio from 1932. The design uses technology popular before the superheterodyne radio was invented.

The radio is a true example of radio history. $250.00. (1410043)

Howard 275 (1937) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Howard Radio Co., Chicago, IL only made a limited number of collectible radios and this is one of them. Howard also manufactured radios for Capehart, Sears and Hallicrafters, some of the high end radios of the day. This tombstone with the green tuning in the dial scale looks great at night and for a six-tube set, it really has a great sound and is very sensitive, picking up many stations. It has AM and two SW bands. The chassis had some surface rust and was stripped and repainted with Rustoleum hammered gold. The controls were cleaned and lubricated and the tuning capacitor was cleaned and lubed and the mounting grommets were replaced. All tubes were tested on my Hickok 600A and weak or defective tubes were replaced. All electrolytic and wax paper capacitors were replaced and any resistors out of tolerance were replaced. The cabinet was tight and the finish in excellent condition, so I just shot it with a few coats of nitrocellulose lacquer. 15-1/2"H x 13-1/4"W x 9"D. $375.00. (1610011)

Howard 375 (1938) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) In 1923, the Howard Radio Company of Chicago IL, started producing broadcast receivers. They were known for their amateur and military short wave radios. They received a contract from the U.S. Army for communication radios during WWII. They had a license from RCA and made components for Capehart, Silvertone and others. The model 375 is a seven-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. All of the resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. The tuning eye tube is bright and active. We installed a new power cord, safety fuse and and an input cable for iPhone, Bluetooth etc. Gary did a great job on the Walnut cabinet. He stripped off the old finish and ended up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The knobs, speaker and chassis are original. We installed a new reproduction grille cloth. Howard didn't produce large numbers of their radios, so finding one like this doesn't happen very often. If you're looking for a different brand for your collection, this radio would be perfect! 19-1/2"W x 11-1/2"H x 10"D.Was $649.00, now $599.00. (1600488)

Jackson-Bell 62 "Fleur-de-Lis" (1932) ON SALE! (Wood tube cathedral radio) Jackson Bell started radio production in Los Angeles, CA in 1926. Herb Bell began the business with his brother Elmer. Gilfillan made the chassis and Elmer made the cabinets. At one time or another, the whole family was involved in the business, including their father Anton. In 1929, Herb became partners with Mr. Jackson, and the company ceased operations in 1933. The model 62 is a six-tube, AM only radio. The radio had been restored by the previous owner, and Blake checked it out making sure it met our standards. A period-correct cloth power cord was installed. An audio cable is not available for this radio. Gary stripped the walnut cabinet. He finished the radio with a satin finish. The radio is gorgeous and has the original knobs and grille cloth. Also present is the often-missing "velvet tone" label located on the lower front of the radio. I think this tag is found only on the Fleur-de-Lis model. Other designs are the Swan, Tulip, Sunburst, Peacock, and the iconic Peter pan. If you are looking for a Fleur-de-Lis for your collection, it would be difficult to find one better than this one. 15"H x 13"W x 8-1/2"D.Was $549.00, now $499.00. (1600303)

Jackson-Bell 62 "Peacock" (1931) (Wood tube cathedral radio) This is a completely refurbished radio. The cabinet out of fine American walnut is simply stunning.

Contained within is a six-tube super-het chassis with tone control playing on the broadcast (AM) band. The radio has been professionally repaired by my technician and brought up to our dramatic levels of performance. My tech has added our mini-jack allowing you to connect the radio to any type of modern device. So listen to the radio as it was designed or as a full scale speaker system.

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)

Majestic 5A410 (1946) (Plastic tube table radio) Once in a while a friend or relative will show up at my shop with a family radio that was left after the passing of a relative. They never want to spend any money on them but just can't get themselves to throw them away. This little Majestic 5A410 is one of those. I, too have a hard time throwing them away. I took a quick look at it, pulled the chassis and restored it before noticing a small crack in the case. Too late now. I repaired the crack as best I could. It doesn't look as bad as it does in the picture. The radio is a very good performer on the internal antenna, with a clip for an external if you want more distance. The sound is pretty good from the perfect 4-inch speaker. Fully restored and aligned, with a full set of high testing tubes. I've seen these sell for as much as $250. That little crack will save you a bunch of money! The Majestic logo on the back says "Mighty Monarch Of The Air." How can you resist that? Broadcast only. 12"W x 8"H x 7"D. $159.00. (1680111)

Majestic 461 "Master Six" (1933) ON SALE! (Wood tube tombstone radio) Grigsby-Grunow of Chicago, IL started to manufacture Majestic radios in 1927. As the depression hit, the company faltered.

The attempt failed and the company declared bankruptcy later that year. The 461 is a six-tube, AM (police on the upper end of the band) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. the resistors and tubes were replaced where necessary.

Matheson-Bell AC-55-35 (Wood tube tombstone radio) Here's a sharp little number, one you're not likely to see again! This radio is so rare that I have found exactly zero documentation for it. The Matheson-Bell company made few radios in any case; an offshoot or new project from one of the people behind Ozarka, they were based in Chicago and only lasted for a few years. I purchased this radio from the original owner, who listened to it when he was a boy and made several attempts at modifying and fixing it, including adding the headphone jack you can see at the rear. It is being sold as-is, as a display piece rather than as a fully functional radio, though it does sort of play. I don't know if the grille cloth is original or a replacement. Power cord is original. It has a nice Deco look to it and will make a great shelf display. I hate to part with this, but I want to send it to someone who has the space to appreciate it. It's a compact little tombstone at 14-1/2"H x 11-1/2"W x 7-1/2"D. Like all of my radios, it will be extremely well-packed and protected for shipping. $195.00. (1560015)

Midge BR-760 (Plastic transistor shirtpocket radio) A very rare radio in any condition. It works, very touchy and the tuning cap could use a lubrication or something as it's stiff.

Mirror Tone 4F8 (1948) (Plastic tube table radio) Extremely Cool Midget, indeed! Here is truly "One of a Kind" due to the fact it was custom painted by Dan Sperry (customradios), the Custom Painter whose process is quite unique in that his artistic twists never disappoint nor do they ever look identical to any of his other pieces because they are all different. Here is a midget Mirror Tone he did for me a couple of years ago and the colors are dynamite as you can see. The main tones are a classic dark red/burgundy with swirled black accents. The bottom and wrap-around end are solid gloss black. It is clear coated in a premium automotive clear and buffed to a mirror like shine. The grille area is tastefully accented by silver & black swirl. Very eye catching. This tiny four-tuber has also been restored electronically and plays well picking up all my locals. I’ll let the pictures do the talking. More pics on request, but it is simply flawless IMHO. Small at 7"W x 5"H x 5"D. $375.00. (1640245)

Napco 6 Transistor (Plastic transistor shirtpocket radio) Radio does work but only on a couple stations, one very well but it'll need servicing to get it to 100 percent again. It is a nice looker, just one slight hairline bottom left that I missed at first but I took a good picture of it. This is a nice color and rare. I find it funny that the name of this is "Napco" and "Nipco" was the more common name. $80.00. (2430132)

Norco 160 (1935) ON SALE! (Wood tube cathedral radio w/SW) Norco (Northwestern Radio Manufacturing Company) was founded in 1921 in Portland, Oregon by Charles Austin. He initially produced early TRF radios, but is famous for creating Oregon's first broadcast radio station (7XF). Later in 1930, he created Oregon's first short wave Police Radio station. He was also selling super-het radios made by Remler and Mission Bell with the Norco name on them. The Norco 160 is five-tube, three-band (AM,SW,Police) radio. The capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents. The tubes and resistors have been checked and replaced where needed. A safety fuse, new power cord and external audio cable were installed. The walnut cabinet was completely stripped, grain-filled and painted. The set was finished with a hard lacquer "piano" finish, then hand-polished. The radio has the original badging, knobs, speaker, chassis, and a reproduction grille cloth. This is only the second Norco radio offered on the Radio Attic. I know we all use the word "rare" frequently, but in this case it truly applies! 17"H x 16"W x 10"D.Was $499.00, now $429.00. (1600367)

Operadio Junior (1927?) SOLD! (Speaker) If I were going to invent a speaker in 1927, I don't know what idea I would have come up with, but I'm pretty sure making the horn out of plaster would not have been it. But that's exactly what the Operadio guys did on this interesting Operadio Junior speaker. I replaced the bad Utah driver with a nearly identical Nathanial Baldwin driver, also made in Salt Lake City. The coil reads 1000 ohms and has a very audible "pop" when I hook up the ohmmeter leads. I repaired this to sell with a Regen set, but my customer changed his mind so I am selling it separately. Painted a kind of Maroon color by a previous owner. New grille cloth. The cord is good with no frays. This will definitely stand out next to your Tuska Regen or Radiola 18. Fairly heavy. 8-1/2"H x 8"W x 7-1/2"D. $109.00. (1680132)

Out of the Air (Book) By Mary Margaret McBride. Autobiography by the woman who basically invented modern interview journalism on her long-running radio shows. Sitting down with your subject for a conversation might seem commonplace in this age of NPR-style interviewing, but McBride was rocking the boat in an age where the reporter used to stand back with a notebook or a microphone and pepper the subject with questions. In her career, she interviewed everyone from senators to farmhands, nutty inventors to Elizabeth Taylor, in a quiet and welcoming manner that allowed them to tell their whole stories. Now, you can read hers. Hardcover, 8.5 x 5.5, 384 pages, photo section in center. Significant shelf wear and rubbing to dust jacket, book itself is in good shape, solid and complete. $10.00.

Over the Top One-Off Antique Radio Receiver (Wood tube casket radio) This is the most professionally made and most over-the-top one-off antique radio receiver I have ever seen! A whopping 37" long! It's just mind blowing and clearly the product of an extraordinary builder! I have not tested it, don't know where to begin with this one. A note inside reads, "National Champion Home Made Class Lake Placid 1982." May have been an AWA meet? When I opened the back I noticed two wires not connected. The construction quality is professional. The condition is excellent though there is a crack in the front panel but it does not stand out. Too big to ship safely. Needs to be picked up. Located near Spartanburg, SC. One of a kind! $750.00. (1160068)

Ozarka Senior S-1 (1924) (Wood tube table radio) This a rare Ozarka Senior S-1 (1924). Ozarka radios are rarely seen and are highly collectable. They represent a neat part of radio history. Here's how Ozarka got started. J.Matheson Bell, Vice President of Montgomery Ward, left in 1922 to form Ozarka. He contracted Tri-City Radio Company to manufacture his sets and quickly set up a network of door-to-door salesman. It was a great opportunity for individuals to own their own business. Not something that was commonly found in the early 1920's. Bell published a weekly newsletter to motivate his sales team and to let them know about new products coming. He also suggested "new" sales techniques to sell more radios. The S-1 was one of their top-of-the-line radios offered by Ozarka. One of great features is the "pop-up" battery storage under the set. This radio sold for $125.00 in 1924 which would cost approximately $1,700 today. It's in very nice original condition. I received it without the tubes, it is complete and original otherwise. Don't miss the opportunity to own this piece of radio history. 22"W x 14"H x 12"D. $295.00. (0150282)

Philco 45C "Butterfly" (1934) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) In 1906, Philco started out as the Philadelphia Storage Battery Company making batteries for cars and trucks. The Philco name didn't appear until 1919, and they didn't produce their first radio until 1928. After aggressive advertising and product development, Philco became the third largest company, selling 400,000 radios by 1929. The 45C is a six-tube, two-band (SB,SW) radio. There were two "Butterfly" radios, the other is the 28C, and two console models utilizing the same chassis. The capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents. The tubes and resistors were checked and replaced where needed. A safety fuse and power cord were added, and we installed an input cable for iPad, Bluetooth etc. The radio performs well with good sensitivity across the dial. Gary completely refinished the radio, which was a daunting task. Several areas had to be masked off and done very carefully. The black on the sides and top was very difficult and required hand-finishing to get that great luster. The knobs, chassis and speaker are original and a reproduction back from FYLP was installed. This is a nicely restored, great playing Butterfly, and it won't be around for long! 19"W x 9-1/2"H x 8"D.Was $995.00, now $899.00. (1600463)

Nice clean chassis as well as original knobs, speaker, dial, etc. The grille cloth is era correct replacement and very close to original pattern & really shows well with the contrasting tones that this radio is finished in.

Philco 80 "JR" Mini Cathedral (1932-1933) (Wood tube cathedral radio) Money was tight in the early 30s, and a lot of poor performing four-tube radios were produced to address that issue. The "JR" was Philco's entry into this market, but they pulled a trick out of their hat by adding regeneration to the IF stage, giving it the gain of a five-tube receiver at a four-tube price. The cabinet is in very nice condition with only a few minor specs and dings. I gave it an extremely slick finish with 14 coats of nitrocellulose lacquer. There was some staining in the front veneer, but I was afraid to keep sanding. Not quite as bad as the camera makes it seem. The Photo Booth made the sides a little lighter than they actually are, and are closer in tint to the top photo. I had to paint the chassis. A full set of good tubes. All of the Philco capacitors were stuffed with new ones to maintain originality. Resistors replaced as necessary and a full alignment. The speaker is perfect and the sound is decent. The receiver sensitivity is better than most four-tube radios. Taken all together it is a pretty darn nice little radio, and not one you see every day. 14"H x 12"W x 8-1/2"D. $349.00. (1680076)

Philco 90 (1931) ON SALE! (Wood tube cathedral radio) Again we have the classic Philco 90 designed by Edward Combs. These radios are large and heavy to today's standards. Despite that the Philco 90 was referred to as a "midget" radio, much smaller and offered a much more attractive design. In the 1920s and early 30's the only radios available were the "coffin" style and large, heavy consoles. The model 90 also used the new, better performing superheterodyne technology which was eventually used by all radio manufacturers. The model 90 is a nine-tube, AM only set. We went through the radio replacing all of the capacitors. Checked all of the tubes and resistors, replacing where necessary. We installed a new cloth power cord, a safety fuse, new antenna lead and an external audio input that produces plenty of volume. This radio was aligned, and has wonderful tone and volume with great sensitivity across the dial. Gary refinished with a gorgeous semi-gloss with a nice original cabinet that has great veneer.

(Bakelite tube table radio) Introduced in August 1939 for Philco's 1940 lineup, the PT-33 replaced the TH-16 (also posted for sale here) which was introduced just two months earlier, the biggest difference between the two models being their dial faces.

Philco PT-44 "Transitone" (1941)
(Wood tube table radio) A lot of people think that the PT-44 developed in 1940 for the 1941 model line had a cabinet that was designed by Ingraham. In reality, the radio was designed in house to show that Philco could design and manufacture an Ingraham-quality cabinet. It competed well against the Emerson, Firestone, and many other companies using Ingraham cabinets. The PT-44 is a five-tube, AC/DC, AM-only radio. It has a gorgeous cabinet utilizing bookend walnut veneers and lacquer finishes. We went through this radio replacing all of the capacitors, out-of-tolerance resistors, checked tubes and replaced if needed. A new power cord and safety fuse were installed. Also added was a new dial cover and grille cloth. The knobs are original. The back of this radio is truly unique, made of walnut with a lyre cutout. Gary did a great refinish, copying the factory lacquer finish to a tee.

Radio Boys Book: At Mountain Pass (Book) -or- The Midnight Call for Assistance. This 1922 book is the fourth in a series of Radio Boys books by Allen Chapman. Its 218 pages portray an enthusiasm of clean wholesomeness of a bygone era. From the Foreword written by Jack Binns of the New York Tribune: "Although the radio boys in this case are but creatures of the author's imagination, nonetheless they are typical of all the men who have taken part in bringing radio to its present stage. Even Marconi himself likes to take pride in the assertion that he too was at one time an amateur, because he insists that during his early experiments he was only a boy amateur tinkering with the little known subject. There is undoubtedly a great deal of truth in his claim, because the experiments that led to his success were made while he was a youth studying at the Bologna University in Italy." For 100 years of age, the wear on this book reflects on it to be in very good condition. There is minimal staining on the faded blue cloth cover. All pages are present and complete, and have not been dog eared. $40.00. (1720120)
-
Radio Boys Book: At Oceans Point (Book) -or- The Message that Saved the Ship. This 218-page 1922 book is the second in a series by Allen Chapman.

From the book's Forward written by Jack Binns, the well-known radio expert of the New York Tribune, "There is no doubt about the interesting of broadcasting; and equally, there is no doubt about the importance of radio as a means of lifesaving." With this thought in mind, I think that the present volume, detailing the adventures of the Radio Boys, serves a very useful purpose in that it forcibly portrays the use of wireless to bring aid to a disabled ship on the high seas in a storm. The blue cloth cover is faded with minimal wear due to 100 years of reading enjoyment. All pages are present and complete and have not been dog eared reflecting how it has been valued. $40.00. (1720118)

Once started, it's hard to stop reading and put the book down. The Forward was written by magazine book editor Jack Binns who wrote, "Fifteen years ago when radio amateurs first began to send out wireless telegraph messages, the Federal authorities in Washington were at a loss to devise some means that would regulate them...Faced with the inexorable regulation, they set to work to devise apparatus which would operate successfully. Among them was E.H. Armstrong." The blue cloth book cover shows fading wear from 100 years of reading enjoyment. All pages are present and complete, and have not been dog eared reflecting how it has been valued. $40.00. (1720115)

From the book's Forward by Jack Binns, the well-known radio expert of the New York Tribune, "It is very appropriate at this moment when radio has taken the country by storm, and aroused an enthusiasm never before equaled, that the possibilities for boys in this art should be brought out in the interesting and readable manner shown in the first book of the series..." The blue cloth covered book has some color fading from 100 years of reading enjoyment. The strong color lettering remains.

From the book's Forward written by Jack Binns, the well-known radio expert of the New York Tribue, "In this series we have seen the Radio Boys apply their hobby to every phase of endeavor to aid humanity. Now we see them apply it to rescue those threatened by one of Nature's greatest terror - flood. With most homes radio equipped this terror has lost much of its horror because radio broadcasting can now send out timely warning in time of emergency."

The boyhood of America more than any other nation has been absorbed with radio since Marconi first demonstrated its practical use."

From the book's Forward written by Jack Binns of the New York Tribune, "There are two aspects of radio as a vital factor of saving the life and property which are very vividly brought out in this interesting volume of the Radio Boys series - namely its use in connection with the patrol work in detecting forest fires, and the regular international ice patrol in the dangerous waters of the north Atlantic. So splendidly have these two functions of radio been developed, that they have become accepted as commonplace in our lives, and it is only by such stories as 'The Radio Boys with the Forest Rangers' that we are awakened to their importance." This book has been enjoyed by owners from Massachusetts to Oregon. The values they held of the book are reflected in that the pages have not been dog eared and are all present and complete. Ninety-nine years of age has the blue cloth cover well worn and faded. $40.00. (1720121)

RCA 5T (1936) ON SALE! (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) In 1921, David Sarnoff started RCA as General Manager, and remained until 1970. By 1926, they already controlled the commercial radio industry, buying radio stations, and then formed NBC. Eventually, NBC was broken up into the other networks, ABC and CBS. More on RCA in upcoming ads. The 5T is a five-tube, two-band (SB,SW) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. We installed a polarized power cord, antenna lead, external audio cable (Bluetooth, iPhone, iPad) and a safety fuse. RCA made great sets, and this radio plays strong and picks up plenty of stations across the dial. Gary stripped the Walnut and Maple veneered cabinet. Using high-quality products and craftsmanship, he ended up with a "piano" lacquer finish. This radio has the original knobs, chassis, copper bezel, dial scale and 8-inch speaker. A new dial cover was installed along with a period-correct reproduction grille cloth. This gorgeous example of an RCA 5T would look perfect in your collection! 16"H x 13"W x 9"D.Was $579.00, now $549.00. (1600459)

RCA 8-BX-7J (1956)
(Plastic tube portable radio) RCA introduced the technology for compact tube portable radios in 1939 with the introduction of miniature 1-volt tubes. By 1956, the era of tube portables was coming to a close, with transistors showing advantages in battery life and compactness. However, transistors were still expensive, so tube portables were still sold for another year or two. Tube portable radios could also run off AC power, unlike transistor radios. This grey plastic RCA is in nice condition and performs like new; there are no significant chips or cracks in the case. The chassis has been meticulously restored with all new capacitors, new resistors where needed, a strong set of tubes, replacement of the selenium rectifier with a silicon diode, and a full RF/IF alignment for best sensitivity and selectivity. Safety has been upgraded by installing a new polarized power cord with modified switch wiring for hot-side switching. The speaker is in good condition and sound quality is good. The tuner has a Vernier mechanism for easy tuning. The ferrite antenna is rotatable for best reception. Small and light, so shipping will not be expensive. 11"W x 8"H x 3-1/2"D. $125.00. (1310154) -

RCA 9TX-3 "Little Nipper" (1939) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio) Even with a stranglehold on the radio industry holding all the patents for superheterodyne technology, RCA themselves manufactured pretty good radios. Slowly some companies were able to pay RCA for the right to build super-hets, and eventually the patent ran out and opened the door for many small companies to do the same. The 9TX-3 is a five-tube, AM only, AC/DC radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The tubes and resistors were checked and replaced where necessary. The radio is a good performer across the dial. Gary stripped the old finish off, and ended up with a beautiful "piano" finish on the Walnut cabinet. The original knobs are made of "Beetle" plastic, Catalin and Bakelite. This very unique RCA radio is ready for your collection and is priced right! 9"W x 5"H x 4"D.Was $549.00, now $499.00. (1600398)

RCA 9TX (1939) ON SALE! (Catalin tube table radio) In 1939 RCA created the "Little Nipper II," a small sleek and streamlined model. The styling of this radio is not only beautiful, but extremely Deco. Its petite clean look makes it stand out in Catalin radios. It started its life as a much brighter yellow with clear, cream and brown swirling. It patinaed to a rich butterscotch with the massive marbling still distinguishable throughout. The chassis has a pilot light that shines through the original Plaskon dial. The dial has white numbers with a barely detectable repaired crack. The original factory red Plaskon volume knob matches the dial. The tight fit of the chassis created a tube burn on the radio's right side as shown in the photo. This radio's side displays its desirable brown marbling. 8-1/2"W x 5-1/4"H x 4"D.Was $1,200.00, now $900.00. (1720124)

RCA 16T4 (1940) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Although general manager David Sarnoff made RCA one of the largest companies in the world, he ran the company with an iron fist. He held the patents for new radio technology and didn't share them. Many small companies couldn't afford to pay the royalties to utilize the technologies. Despite his business techniques, the company pioneered radio and television broadcasting for the world. Their products were top-notch. The 16T4 is a six-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) radio. With five-button electronic tuning, dual tone control for radio and phono input, and a new dual circuit loop antenna, this was one performing radio! We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. A safety fuse and new power cord were installed. The radio has a factory phono input that works great with Bluetooth etc. A new addition to Joe's Radio Shop is Steve Tucker, who specializes in cabinet refinishing.

RCA 45EY-26 "Alice in Wonderland" 45rpm Phonograph (1951) (Plastic phonograph) Anyone that grew up in the fifties remembers these little little 45 record players/changers when 45 records were all the rave. Everyone wanted one! This is the rare kids version which was the same as the adult players, except the color scheme, decals, and the kids' version had a metal turntable instead of plastic. The amp has been electronically restore, replacing caps, resistors, etc. The record changer was disassembled, cleaned and lubricated. The idler wheel, cycling cam, rubber motor mounts, rubber bushings under the turntable replaced. The cap assembly was disassembled and cleaned. The platform has been replaced but the cabinet retains its original paint and decals. These Alice in Wonderland versions are scarce, and prized by collectors. These record players are expensive to restore so don't miss out on this one. It plays and sounds great with its two-stage tube amplifier. The cartridge and needle was replaced with a stereo cartridge that was bridged into mono, so you can play stereo 45s as well. You can stack 12 or more 45 records on the spindle at a time. These are beautiful little machines that sound awesome. 10-1/2"W x 5"H x 8-1/2"D (cabinet). $479.00. (0620200)

RCA 55X (1941) (Wood tube table radio) I guess World War II was in our sights already, and maybe brass was already being rationed, but, come on RCA, no escutcheon? Beyond that, this 1941 RCA 55X was a top-of-the-line AM table radio. Popular with collectors, it is one of very few in its time that had two speakers! As a result the sound quality is quite good and projects very well. Solid wood cabinet with walnut veneer front. RCA had this tinted almost black to cover up a dark spot in the solid wood top. I don't like tinting them that dark, so the flaw in the wood shows up. It doesn't look as bad as the camera made it. I gave it a full set of good tubes, replaced all the caps and resistors as necessary. Full alignment. Receiver sensitivity is good on the internal antenna, but there is a wire provided for an external antenna. I have provided a switch and a cable for your mobile devices. I had to make one of the speaker grills, the back cover, and I had to replace the veneer on the front. A nice slick finish, with 14 coats of lacquer. All in all, a fairly unique, good looking, good performing, and I think, a very cool AM radio from one of the biggest radio companies in the world. 17"W x 7-1/2"H x 6-3/4"D. $299.00. (1680056)

It has the original knobs, grille cloth and back. It has a built-in antenna which picks up well on both AM and Short Wave. It has two dial lights. I went through it and replaced weak tubes, filters and caps, lubed and cleaned controls, and aligned it as well. It plays out fine. A nice addition to your Catalin radio collection or play at home or office. 15"W x 9"H x 7"D. $425.00. (1700078)

RCA 143 (1934) ON SALE! (Wood tube cathedral radio w/SW) RCA designed and manufactured some great radios in the 1930's. Even though RCA had a stranglehold on the industry, controlling patents for TRF and Superheterodyne radios, a few companies were given permission to utilize the patents, most notably the Gilfillan Brothers in Los Angeles. A few other companies were allowed, but they had to manufacture their radios in the Gilfillan factory. This eight-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) radio with its new "magic brain" circuitry, which was basically tuned RF with VCA, was the top of the line in 1935. This huge radio has a ton of volume and a tone control with wonderful fidelity through an 8-inch speaker. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents.

Silvertone 57D 1705 (1933) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Collectors speculate this radio celebrated the Empire State Building (notice the grille bar design) and was a smaller companion to the Chicago World's Fair Century of Progress radio. In my opinion this radio signifies the unique style and elegance only found in Depression Era radios. The cabinet on this fairly rare radio is in stunning original condition. The gorgeous grille cloth is intact along with the impossible to find original Silvertone knobs and wooden backing. Even remnants of a 1933 National Recovery Act sticker can be seen on the back of this set! A prior owner performed an electronic restoration, including a new power cord for safety. It's a good player on AM but not a great performer since it's an early Superhet. I was unable to tune much on the Shortwave band but that's not surprising for such a small set. The diminutive dial lens is bit distorted from natural aging (see photo). Despite its small size, there's a lot of heft to this set. This radio weighs 19 pounds; 10"H x 13-1/2"W x 7-1/4"D. $200.00.

Silvertone 1954 (1935) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) One of the first radios I bought and restored was a Silvertone model 1954. During this time period, Colonial was manufacturing a lot of the Silvertone models and there were various cabinet makers used as well. These good looking, Art Deco tombstones were great performers and featured one of the first "airplane" motif dials. The 1954 is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) AC radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. We added a new power cord, safety fuse, antenna lead and an audio input cable for iPhones, Bluetooth etc. An interesting feature is the "airplane" dial turns from green to red when the radio is powered up. Gary stripped the walnut cabinet with his usual mastery, and after sanding and painting came out with a gorgeous catalyzed lacquer finish. The original wooden knobs, chassis, speaker and dial are with the set. Once again, this restored model 1954 is "collection ready" and performs well. 16-1/4"H x 11-3/4"W x 10"D. $679.00. (1600491)

Stewart-Warner R-110AT (1933) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Stewart-Warner was founded in 1905 in Chicago, and by 1912 produced a speedometer that was used in the Ford Model T. As well as vehicle instruments, they manufactured radios and refrigerators among other products. Here is a radio you don't see very often. There were several different radios offered with the 110 series chassis. This one was designated R-110AT, the "T" stands for twin speakers. This ten-tube, three-band (SB, SWx2) radio had other features like a noise suppression circuit, AVC, and push-pull audio, all very innovative for 1933. Blake went through the chassis replacing all of the capacitors, checked all of the tubes and resistors, replacing where necessary. He added a new cord, safety fuse and a cable to use an external device. An alignment was done making this radio a strong performer across the dial. Gary stripped the Walnut and Mahogany cabinet. He used the highest quality paint and grain fillers, ending up with a beautiful "piano" lacquer finish. All of the knobs are original, and Blake installed a new, period-correct grille cloth. 16"W x 13"H x 12"D.Was $799.00, now $699.00. (1600350)

Stewart-Warner R-1272 "Prado" (1934) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Stewart-Warner started incorporating multiple types of veneers and ornate grilles on their mid-size tombstones a year or two before some of the other manufacturers. They already had a great reputation of producing quality electronics, so this was another feather in their cap!

Stromberg-Carlson 1110 (1946) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Stromberg-Carlson got their start making some of the earlier telephone switching equipment. Their equipment was famous for reliability, and when they moved to New York and branched out into radio, they carried that commitment into the new business. This 1110 is a nice example of that commitment to quality. The very well designed chassis is a good performer on the internal antenna, with screws for external. Six preset buttons can be used on either BC or SW, not a common feature. The cabinet is covered with attractive veneers and 15 coats of lacquer for a nice slick finish. I fine tuned a previous restoration, installed all high testing tubes and gave it a full alignment. The sound is the most amazing I have ever heard from a 5-inch speaker. I have provided a mobile device cable for the phono input. The finish on the dial bezel it a bit deteriorated, but not bad enough to risk fooling with it. A few dings and specks, but overall a very nice cabinet. Definitely an upper crust table radio. 16"W x 9-1/2"H x 9"D. $649.00. (1680125)

Trav-Ler T502 (1947) (Plastic tube table radio) I purchased this radio on eBay, presuming it was an Air Castle model 328. The cabinet and chassis are identical to an Air Castle 328. The confusing part was that the rear cover is clearly stamped "Model T502." Eventually I was able to identify it as a Trav-Ler T502. Turns out Trav-Ler supplied this radio to Spiegel to sell under their Air Castle brand. The finish was terrible so I repainted it in the proper ivory color. The camera made it a bit lighter than it actually is. A few minor flaws in the otherwise perfect finish. It has a nice, brightly lit dial. The radio came to me with a full set of Hytron tubes that all test new or better. I replaced all of the capacitors and most of the resistors. Full alignment. Receives well on the internal antenna, but has external antenna wires for more distant stations. The back cover leaves a bit to be desired, but I repaired it the best I could and left it for originality. Original grille cloth. The knobs are showing their age, but are presentable. Broadcast only. The best I can tell, this is the only radio of this model in existence. If rare is your thing, this is your radio! 10"W x 6-1/4"H x 5"D. Was $149.00, now $129.00. $149.00. (1680091)

Tuska 228 Regenerative Receiver (1924) SOLD! (Wood tube casket radio) By the mid-1920s most AM radios were of the TRF type. Tuska went with the Regenerative design and was fairly successful with it. The Tuska 228 is considered by many to be near the pinnacle of the regens. At 97 years old, this one is in pretty nice condition. The cabinet is as I found it. For $60 additional I will refinish it. I have equipped it with four 01A tubes, three NOS and the other 80%. Receiver sensitivity is quite good for its time, and the volume is surprising for a radio of this design. The included speaker has no markings on it but works well. The two large knobs are not original. Some of the wiring is not original. I corrected a major oversight of the design and provided an on-off switch. Operating one of these is a combination of art, science, and magic. If you are not familiar with regenerative receivers, do some homework before buying this. I ran it with one 6V and five 12V gel cells (total cost about 75 bucks) and it performed well. 24"W x 7-1/2"H x 8"D. Speaker is 24"H with a 10-1/2" diameter horn. $349.00. (1680063)

Weltron 2001 Space Helmet (1971) (Plastic other radio) Weltron cashed in on the Apollo craze with this unique and very well made model 2001 space helmet radio. AM/FM/8-track. AC, 12V lighter plug or eight "C" cells. Everything works except the external speaker jacks (Exact same plug as the 12v cable. You do the math). AM/FM reception is quite good and the sound isn't bad from the perfect 4-inch speakers. End segment missing from the antenna, but it is still too long. I threaded a screw into it so you can extend it normally. Balance slider a bit sticky in spite of my best efforts. A lot of tiny scratches in the front I couldn't polish out, but not too noticeable when viewed straight on. A repaired crack in the top (see photo). This came from a very dear friend 40 years ago, so hurts to sell. I hope someone will give it a good home. Reflection from my shirt in the front photo. After four tries, I gave up. Tapes available for a small fee, not guaranteed. Ask if interested. About 12-1/2"W x 12-1/2"H x 10-1/2"D. $299.00. (1680130)

Western Air Patrol 76 (1935) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Western Auto Supply of California started selling radios under the Western Air Patrol brand in 1925. The radios were manufactured by Gilfillan in Los Angeles under Gilfillan's RCA patent. By the late 1930's, Western Auto Supply had 150 stores west of the Rockies, and in 1939 were sold to Gambles. There were no Western Air Patrol radios sold after 1939. The model 76 is a seven-tube, three-band (SB,SW,Police) and was the top-of-the-line table set for WAP in 1935. We replaced all of the capacitors and checked all of the resistors and tubes, replacing where necessary. A new power cord, audio input cable, antenna leads and a safety fuse were installed. The radio picks up stations well on both the AM and SW bands. The 8-inch Jensen speaker has been reconed, and the radio has tons of volume and great fidelity. Gary totally stripped off the old finish and ended up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The knobs are brand new, made by Mark Palmquist. This is how the radio originally came from the factory. The model 76 is quite large measuring almost two feet in width and 12" high. Truly a nice restoration and should perform well for years to come. 23-1/2"W x 11-1/2"H x 11-1/2"D.Was $995.00, now $899.00. (1600493)

Wild Planet DJ AM Transmitter (Plastic other radio) This one is a bit of a departure for me, but I saw it on eBay and couldn't resist. The little guy is actually a pretty good AM transmitter! Built in DJ microphone, built in cassette player, and a 1/8" jack to plug in a CD player or mobile device.
Everything works on it and the sound was quite good on my Crosley Super 11. Turn your kids or grandkids loose with it to practice their DJ skills or just use it to broadcast to any of your AM radios from the music source of your choice. It comes from the factory set to 1610 kHz. For a $25 fee I can convert it to 1250 kHz. The bottom was missing the rubber feet, so is pretty scratched up. I put rubber feet on it. The battery door was missing. I made a clear plastic one for it. Range is about 30-50 feet depending what antenna you have on your radio. It's really a pretty cool little device, and I'd bet your kids or grandkids would have some fun with it. Or use it to broadcast to your radios from your mobile device or CD player. 9-1/2"W x 7"D x 3"H. Batteries included! $75.00. (1680133)

Zenith 4-B-132 (1936) (Wood tube table radio) When you think of farm radios, you think small, flimsy cabinets, little tinny speakers and big, expensive throw away batteries. Zenith fixed that when they designed this gorgeous 4B132. Nothing about this says "Farm Radio." The cabinet is stylish and elegant. It has a large 6-inch, perfect speaker and well-designed chassis. The sound is outstanding, on par with any similar AC set I have ever heard. They designed it with a vibrator like a car radio so it can run off a standard 6V car battery. You could even take it to the beach with your 1937 Duesenberg! The finish is slick and gorgeous, with a few minor dings from 80+ years of living. Several less than perfect veneer repairs. Fully restored chassis. New solid state vibrator and a full set of high testing tubes. When you look at this, don't think Farm radio. This is 'way better. The 4B132 is the much more rare version of the tombstone style 4B131. Requires external antenna and a 6V battery available on eBay for about 20 bucks. I can supply the pictured AC supply for an additional $40. 13-1/2"W x 11-1/2"H x 9-1/2"D. $299.00. (1680107)

Zenith 5-G-537 (1941) SOLD! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Those of us that buy and restore radios, certain models pop up more that others. The simple explanation is that more were produced and sold. Zenith made a lot of radios, but here's one I had read about but had never seen The 5-G-537 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. The "G" indicates it's a battery set, but also functions with an AC power cord. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. We installed a safety fuse and a new power cord. Gary stripped the cabinet and refinished using a catalyzed lacquer producing a "piano" finish. The faux decals around the top and bottom were in excellent condition. The chassis, knobs and eight inch speaker are original. I was surprised that Zenith basically had a "farm" set in 1941, as most companies weren't producing them due to the REA (Rural Electrification Act) had been established in 1936. This rare and unique set is priced right, make it yours today! 23"W x 12"H x 12-1/2"D. $549.00. (1600483)

(Wood tube table radio w/SW) These highly collectable Zenith radios, referred to as a "Cube," were a huge success for Zenith. This iconic, good sounding, reliable radio created a huge following and are still desirable radios to this day, and this model is very rare amongst "Cubes." Zenith made several models of the "Cube" and this is the only AC/6 volt version I have ever seen. The 5-J-217 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,SW) AC and six volt battery radio. All of the capacitors were replaced with new Mylar equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. A safety fuse, antenna lead, power cord and audio input cable were installed. Gary stripped the original finish off of the Mahogany and walnut cabinet. He ended up with a beautiful lacquer "piano" finish. The radio has the original knobs, speaker and chassis.

Zenith 5-S-228 (1938) ON SALE! (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) The 5-S-228 came out in June of 1937 for the 1938 line. Some of the printed advertising showed the 228 along with a few "cube" models. The 228 was basically a mini-tombstone version of the "cube," utilizing the five-tube 5521 chassis which was used in a few cube models. Popular with collectors as it is a little harder to find this model due to lower production numbers. The 5-S-228 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. All of the capacitors were replaced with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. A new power cord, safety fuse, audio input jack and antenna lead were installed. Gary stripped the cabinet and skillfully restored it to a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The original knobs, speaker and chassis are with the radio. We installed a reproduction grille cloth. This radio performs well and has good sensitivity, picking up many stations across the dial. This is a very nice 5-S-228 and would be a great addition to anyone's collection! 13"H x 10"W x 9-1/2"D.Was $749.00, now $699.00. (1600469)

Zenith 5-S-319 (1939) SOLD! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Once in a great while I get my hands on one of these things, and the whole time I am restoring it, all I can think is "what a sweet little radio." This is one of those. Everything about this little 5S319 epitomizes Zenith's exceptional mastery of style, technical expertise, and quality that made them a leader in AM radio for over 50 years. One of the nicest looking and best-performing table radios I have ever restored. I see now why they are so highly prized by collectors. This one came to me in fairly sad condition. I had to do several veneer repairs, some better than others. I replaced all of the capacitors and resistors, gave it a full set of high testing tubes and a gorgeous, slick finish with 15 coats of nitrocellulose lacquer. The knobs and pushbuttons are reproductions. The grille cloth is not original. I removed the dangerous 6X5 rectifier tube and replaced it with a solid-state rectifier. I will be glad to supply it with the tube type if you want, but if it shorts and burns up your transformer, I can't fix it for free. 13"W x 9"H x 7-1/2"D. $699.00. (1680051)

Zenith 6-D-525 (1941)
SOLD! (Wood tube table radio w/Ingraham cabinet) A black dial pre-War Zenith in a beautiful professionally refinished solid walnut case, one of only a few Zenith cases attributed to the Ingraham Cabinet Company of Bristol Connecticut.

The cases on these models just look fantastic after they are refinished, like the day they appeared on the showroom floor. The radio has a unique design where tube heat is released through slats in the case, hence its nickname "Toaster." The chassis has been gone over by a pro, and the radio is playing nicely, picking up all my local AM stations clearly. The dial lamp work fine and the set has its original "Z" knobs, "Z" dial pointer, and its original back it excellent condition.

Zenith 6-S-27 (1936) ON SALE! (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) During the summer of 1935, Zenith came out with a new tombstone design. The most obvious change was the size; these radios were two feet tall and commanded attention with room-shaking volume. Zenith added a smaller version of their big, black multicolored dial, and the radio also had the new design features of the console radios. The 6-S-27 is a six-tube, three-band (SB+SWx2) set. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse and audio input were added. This radio has excellent sensitivity and tons of volume. Gary stripped the unique cabinet that has Maple and Walnut veneers and is trimmed with Australian Laurel.

Zenith 6-S-128 (1937) ON SALE! (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) The Zenith tombstone radios from from 1936 and 1937 set a very high bar on tombstone design and innovative electronic features.

The top and surround of the burl appear to have been refinished at some point, but well done. It is known as The "Stars and Stripes" for obvious reasons.

Zenith 6-S-528 (1941) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Zenith cranked out a lot of radios with this basic chassis in them. For some reason, the smaller 6S527 is much more common. This one had a previous refinish job that was a little less than perfect, but I didn't want to strip it and lose the woodgrain pinstripes, so I doctored it up the best I could and put eight coats of lacquer over it. The result is a nice slick finish and a fairly good looking and good performing radio. The tint is a little darker at the bottom front, but not as bad as the camera made it look. The speaker has one patch by a previous servicer, but sounds very good. A full set of high testing tubes, all new caps, including stuffing the electrolytic, resistors as necessary and replaced most of the rubber wiring. After alignment, it receives Broadcast fairly well on the internal "wave magnet" antenna. There are screw terminals for shortwave and more distant stations. Remember the old Zenith slogan? "The quality goes in before the name goes on." 16"W x 8-3/4"H x 7-1/2"D. $349.00. (1680099)

Zenith 6-V-27 (1936) SOLD! (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) "Off the grid" was not a choice for a lot of folks in 1936. GM would still sell you a Cadillac, but most radio companies only offered a VW Beetle. Not Zenith, though. Witness this stunning 6V27 Tombstone! The cabinet is huge, ornate and gorgeous. The six-tube chassis featured a dedicated RF amp and push-pull output. Three bands, with a geared, two-dial tuning mechanism and the classic, brightly lit Zenith black dial. I gave it a nice slick finish with 15 coats of lacquer and three sanding operations. A few blemishes remain from 87 years of service. The original 8-inch armature style speaker was not much punkin.' I replaced it with an awesome 8-inch Zenith PM speaker from my stash. Two very small repairs. The sound is just awesome! Receiver sensitivity is better than most AC sets. I replaced the mechanical vibrator with a reliable solid state type. I built an AC supply, with a switch so you can use original 6V battery or AC. I'm never sure what a buyer likes, so I left the escutcheon alone. I can restore it if you want, but they never look original afterward. You will be hard pressed to find a better example of this Cadillac of farm radios. Requires an external antenna. 23"W x 17"W x 12"D. $750.00. (1680131)

Zenith 7-S-433 "Zephyr" (1940)
(Wood tube table radio w/SW) Zenith manufactured several models collectors call the "Zephyr," named after the Art Deco train car design from the 30's and early 40's. This table radio was the last "Zephyr" made by Zenith; it is rare and highly sought after by collectors. There were two different chassis for this radio and a few other models. I've seen a black dial, and also a gold dial on this and other models. This radio is a seven-tube, three-band (SB, SWx2) and has a "Wavemagnet" internal loop antenna that works well with this chassis. It has separate bass and treble boost switches, giving this radio great fidelity. We replaced all the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. We installed a new power cord, safety fuse, and an audio input cable for your external device. Gary stripped and refinished the walnut cabinet, applying several coats of lacquer for that deep "piano finish" look, just as they came from the factory.

Zenith 7-S-633 (1942) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) The 1940-1942 Zenith table radios were a departure in design from previous years. They are all very collectable now, and most of them sound pretty darned good! The new "tone organ" tone selector with five choices really helps the fidelity. They have surprisingly good bass response, due in part to the "boxy" cabinets. I have posted a 7-S-634, which uses the same chassis but different cabinet without a wrap-around grille. The 7-S-633 is a seven-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) set. The newly designed "wave magnet" internal antenna loop works quite well. The radio has great sensitivity and volume across the dial. We went in and replaced all of the capacitors with modern values. We checked all of the resistors and tubes, replacing where needed. We installed an audio cable, safety fuse and new power chord. Gary did a fantastic job stripping and refinishing the walnut-veneered cabinet to a "factory fresh" look. He skillfully applied lacquer for a "piano" hard finish. The radio has the original chassis, knobs and speaker. A new reproduction back was installed These sets are really good performers and have a classic look.

Zenith 10-S-130 (1937) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) The 10-S-130 was the top-of-the-line tombstone for the 1937 model year. Zenith's "big, black dial" was a huge success for them, and to this day they are still sought-after sets.

Zenith 11E (1928) (Wood tube table radio) BC. This stunning very early Zenith is basically a battery model with an external power supply added and AC tube lineup. It's quite sensitive for such an early TRF, performs well, and even has a lighted dial. The cabinet has a beautiful burled walnut veneer that has incredible depth and color. You wont find many of these, its quite heavy and the first time you lift it from the top that's the end of the cabinet, and with all the rubber wiring and potted capacitors in the power supply it takes a great deal of work and a degree of insanity to follow thru to the end for a working radio. The radio includes a fully and properly restored Ansonia 911 speaker ready to play! First offering on Radio Attic, Fully restored and working. 25"W x 10-1/2"H x 13-1/2"D. $450.00. (0100180)

Zenith 705 (1934) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio) In 1933, FDR had been elected president as the country was experiencing a severe depression. Unlike most companies, Zenith had a huge surplus of cash, and produced 125 models, the 200, 400, 500 and 600 model series for 1933, up from just 25 the year before.

Zenith X519 (1955) (Plastic tube clock radio) When I was a kid my grandfather "fell heir" as he used to say, to a clock radio with a bad power cord. My mom told him I needed an alarm clock to get me up to milk the cow before school. So, we jumped in the car, headed to Western Auto, tested the tubes, bought a couple, and a new power cord. From then on I woke up to the country classics on KFAL 900 every morning. If you have memories like these, this little Zenith X519 is just the thing to bring them back to life. The cabinet is very nice. The front panel graphics are in great shape, and everything works! I cleaned and lubed the clock, recapped the chassis, fitted it with all high testing tubes, and gave it a full alignment. Reception is excellent on the internal antenna, and the sound is surprisingly good. A couple of the clock knobs have a little rash, but present fairly well. Here's your chance to rack up a bunch of good memories for under a C-note! I bet you'll be glad you did. 12"W x 7"H x 5-1/2"D. $99.00. (1680110)
