Abbotwares Z477 Golden Horse & Rider (1947) (Metal tube novelty radio) This is a very special set in Gold, very different from all the others I have ever seen. It might have been made as a prize gift for someone perhaps, as I have searched and cant find another like it. It has been electronically restored with all old capacitors replaced with new and new filters too, so there's no hum. Tubes have all been checked on my checker. This radio performs really very well I was surprised how well it does sound and how many stations it receives.; $975.00. (0021551)

Addison 5 "Courthouse" (1940) (Catalin tube table radio) I am only the 2nd owner of this set. Here is an all-original Addison Model 5 Catalin radio in a dark green/ebony cabinet with spectacular yellow/gold/green marbleizing and a gorgeous deep shine. The cabinet has no cracks, chips, hairlines, tube burns or repairs. The grill cloth and dial glass are original as are the five butterscotch vertical grille bars and three butterscotch pinwheel knobs, all of which are in mint condition. The radio retains the original manufacturer's sticker affixed to the cabinet bottom. This is truly a spectacular example of this radio that would be an incredible addition to any collection. The chassis is complete but sold "as-is" and "non-working" so if you’re one of the very few who play your Catalins, please have it restored by a qualified technician prior to use. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. About 12-1/2"W x 9"H x 7"D. $2,800.00. (1750102)
-
Admiral 4R12 "Roll Up Dial" Portable (1950) (Plastic tube portable radio) This Admiral Retro portable set from 1950 is one of the most unusual and ingenious radios ever made. The dial is hidden inside the case. When you push the button down on the right top, the dial and red dial pointer spring up, and the radio turns on. You turn the radio off by closing the dial down into the case. Very clever, and unlike any radio made before or since. The maroon plastic case has no major cosmetic issues, just a few scratches and rubs. Incredible shape for a set 80 years old. The radio is playing strongly and clearly, picking up all my local AM stations with no problem. The plastic covered handle is in good condition. The Admiral name on front is in good condition. A wonderful example of a Retro 50's radio. It displays very nicely. About 9"W x 7"H x 4"D. $149.00. (1150797)
-

Admiral 7T01M-N (1948) (Bakelite tube table radio) Beautiful Bakelite case with slanted sides on this five-tube AM radio from 1948. Great sound across a nicely lit dial. Power cord, weak tubes and all paper and Electrolytic capacitors replaced. 12-1/4"W x 8-1/2"H x 7-1/2"D. $150.00. (0390445)
-
Admiral 4201-B6 (1941) (Bakelite tube table radio) The six-tube chassis in this 1941 Admiral has had all electrolytic and wax capacitors changed, resistors checked and alignment peaked. The Bakelite cabinet was badly faded so I coated it with a clear automotive quality urethane. The color patterns molded in the Bakelite were too good to be hidden with paint. Internal loop antenna for reception but adding an external antenna makes the sensitivity in this radio come to life. 11"W x 8"H x 7"D. $195.00. (1550135)

-
Admiral Y2411GP (Plastic transistor shirtpocket radio) Radio not working presently - just a little noise when applying power but no stations or static. It's a real time capsule worthy of a full restoration as the chrome is incredible with no flaws and plastic has no scratches. This is a real beauty. $65.00. (2430327)
-
Admiral YG703 (Plastic tube table radio) This is a very basic, but clean example from the early 1960s. Bottom label is missing, so determining the model number required some research. One tiny chip can be seen in the photos. A four-tube superheterodyne, it has reasonable sensitivity, and would be a perfect ballgame or news/talk radio for a kitchen, workshop, or garage. The four-tube design might have only marginal performance in a basement unless you are in an area with good signal strength. There is no provision for an external antenna. It has been fully serviced (new capacitors, resistors checked, tubes tested and replaced as necessary, and aligned). $45.00. (1530010)

Airline 62-47 Cathedral (1933) (Wood tube cathedral radio w/SW) In a timeline of exceedingly dark finishes, this radio is crafted of maple with embellishments of Birdseye maple. The radio is also unique with the chassis made of aluminum, something I can't recall ever seeing in this timeline. The radio is a rather large cabinet to accommodate twin six-inch speakers, another rarity. With this level of speaker size the radio was intended to delivery console (floor model) size sound from a table radio. The radio has been nicely refinished by a previous collector with a correct hand rubbed satin finish. The speaker cloth is period correct replacement and the wooded embossed knobs original to the radio. The seven-tube early super-het chassis and the radio is a solid performer on the AM band. The radio offers a detailed dial with a back lit dial pointer which is quite dramatic. Clearly intended to be the best of the best of the era, the radio does not disappoint. Bluetooth is available for your streaming ease and enjoyment for an additional $25! Impressive in scale at 18-1/2"H x 16-1/2"W x 12"D. $795.00. (0961661)
-
Airline 62-103 (1934) SOLD! (Wood tube tombstone radio) This is a rather rare model possibly never offered before on the Attic. In addition it could be one of the best overall examples. The chassis was factory finished with a copper coating and for the most part displays as it did in 1934. The dial and grille cloth are correct reproductions. The dial is backlit with attractive green light. The cabinet was completely refinished starting with an undamaged cabinet. The radio has been serviced and plays well. 17"H x 15"W x 12"D. $599.00. (0260786)
-
Airline 62-290 "Miracle" (1937) (Plastic tube table radio) Here is a nice Deco set from the 30s brass age. The radio has been totally restored with all new capacitors and resistors, new 6U5 indicator tube, line cord and speaker cone. It plays loud and clear with good selectivity. I painted it bright red because it looks cool that way. The Bakelite knobs are original. There is a 20 ft antenna wire included for you to run wherever you want to get the best reception. If you want, I will set the presets for you and make tabs for the stations as well. I like this set because it is a bottom loader; in other words all sides can be displayed and it looks good on all sides. $350.00. (1000290)
-
Airline 62-318 "Movie Dial" (1937) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) This radio features a rear projection dial which is extremely detailed in character on a satin screen. The eight -tube super-het chassis offers both broadcast and shortwave. They were such deluxe radios; the chassis is chromed, which remains in fine condition. The radio offers a super bright and sensitive green tuning eye which winks as you zero in on the most sensitive tuning. The radio offers a tone control with a display straddling the dial. The radio is in factory original condition with all of the factory installed parts. The cabinet shows a bit of wear but in really fine condition for a radio of 81+ years of service. My tech has done a professional repair to the radio. He added a mini-jack to the circuits so you could enjoy listening to your own content from any modern type of electronic. The large cabinet, 8-inch speaker and tone control make this radio a pleasure to listen to. Bluetooth is available for an additional $25. 22-1/4"W x 13"H x 10-1/2"D. $799.00. (0961507)
-
Airline 62-386 (1937)
(Bakelite tube table radio) Here is a sweet, Art Deco Airline made for and sold in Montgomery Ward stores circa 1937. The brown/maroon Bakelite case has beautiful molded ornate design on the top. Unusual due to tuning eye in a Bakelite model and the "tele-dial" which is used to preset stations. The case is a one piece molded piece of Bakelite that slides down over the chassis which is mounted on a metal bottom…very unusual & in super nice condition without any cosmetic issues like breaks, cracks or chips, and is very hard to find in this condition. Even the back is also Bakelite. It has a super cool Tele-Dial tuning, and a very bright, good functioning green eye tube. The dial light shows thru the red Tele-Dial which gives it a real presence. The radio is playing clearly, picking up all my local stations. I will include an extended piece of antenna wire to facilitate picking up distant stations at night as well. The chassis is accessed by removing the original knobs and lifting the case off the chassis. This is the nicest example of this model I've ever seen. About 11"W x 7-1/2"H x 6-1/2"D. $329.00. (1640204) -
Airline 62-406 "Teledial" (1937)
SOLD! (Wood tube table radio) Here is a nice looking Art Deco wood radio that plays great. The electronics have been restored and the eye tube is bright and closes fully on strong stations. The speaker is a replacement and it sounds excellent. The cabinet has its original finish and it's very good. It uses a long wire for an antenna. 17"W x 9"H x 9"D; weighs about 20 lbs. $200.00. (1270285) -
Airline 62-425 (1937)
(Wood tube table radio) Here is a nice five-tube transformer set that works good. The electronics have been restored and it works well with a long wire antenna. The cabinet has been refinished at some point and is still very good. This is a nice small set at 11"W x 7"H x 7"D. $160.00. (1270286) -
Airline 62-425 (1937)
SOLD! (Wood tube table radio) Sold in Montgomery Ward stores, as this was their private label brand. This Airline produced for them by Stromberg-Carlson. The 62-425 is very collectible and is referred to as the "Indian Head" radio because of the resemblance the grille scrollwork has to that of an American Indian (visualize an Indian facing left as his feather headdress faces to the right). You'll definitely want to add this one to your den, office or collection. This cabinet has been refinished using the very finest toning and finishing lacquers, producing a wonderful luster, paying respect to the original finish. All of the capacitors have been replaced with modern types, out of tolerance resistors replaced, tubes checked and replaced where needed, antenna lead installed, and a new fused polarized power cord installed. New period correct grille cloth. I have added an audio input so you may listen to your own supplied music. Plays very nicely on the AM Broadcast band. 10-1/2"W x 7-1/4"H x 6"D. $239.00. (1390372) -
Airline 62-501 (1938) (Bakelite tube table radio) No dial-face, just push-buttons, make this Bakelite radio from the golden age look very deco! The grille slots wrap around two sides and the dial position is read from the tuning knob on the other. The mechanical type push-buttons are set by loosening the screw on that knob. The radio has no back, but the case is nearly flawless, with no cracks or chips, and the five tube superhet chassis has been serviced and plays well. $175.00. (0610042)
-
Airline 62-702 (1939) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) This 1939 Airline from Montgomery Wards has a restored seven-tube chassis and refinished cabinet. Period correct lacquer toners and a semi-gloss finish were used to restore the cabinet. The two-band chassis has had all wax and electrolytic capacitors replaced, resistors checked and alignment peaked. The tuning eye tube is new. Needs an external antenna for reception. 20"W x 12"H x 10"D. $500.00. (1550134)
-

-
Airline 74BR-1502B (1947) (Bakelite tube table radio) Here is a very small five-tube radio that is AM only. I call it a "Mini Toaster" as late 40's radios all seem to look like toasters to me! It has an ivory painted Bakelite case with no chips, cracks or hairlines. The matching ivory bullet knobs are not original but streamline the case a bit in front. It has the original metal back that also acts like an antenna, but it picks up a lot more with a long wire antenna attached. I went through the chassis and all caps and filters are replaced as well as weak tubes. It has a replacement cord for safety. It was aligned as well. Don't expect it to play like a 15-tube Zenith, but it does fine for its size! 7-1/2"W x 5-1/2"H x 5-1/4"D. $95.00. (1700058)
-
Airline 84GCB-1062A (Cloth/leather tube portable radio) The first one of these I've seen in maroon. The mounting holes for the back were damaged and reinforced so the back stays on.

(0250125)
-

Radio has no cracks or chips or hairlines and antenna is straight. $50.00. (2430102)
-
Air Castle 5000 (1939) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) You are looking at a terrific table radio. Manufactured by Detrola Radio from Detroit, Michigan, these were very well engineered radios. This radio was available under several names, but the Air Castle name was the house brand of Spiegel Catalogue Company. The six-tube super-het chassis plays well on both AM and Shortwave. Note the massively oversized multi-colored dial which is brightly backlit. The new green tuning eye winks with great sensitivity as you dial station to station. The cabinet is a nice original finish. There are a few imperfections, normal for a radio of this age (82 years old). The speaker cloth and knobs appear to be factory original. The fine American walnut is dramatic in its pattern. My tech has done his usual and professional repairs and the radio plays in a fine fashion. He has added a mini-jack to the circuit and you can choose your modern input device to the radio. Listen to your phone, pad or computer for the infinite amount of free content available. Bluetooth is available for an additional $25. 18"W x 10"H x 8"D. $695.00. (0961596)
-
Air Castle 6110 (1939) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) This is a stunning radio! The previous owner did a terrific refinish to the cabinet. It was difficult to photo this radio with the depth of the finish and reflection from the dramatic luster. Air Castle was the house brand of Macy's and Spiegel catalogue. They contracted their production to some of the finest manufacturers of the era. Looking at the chassis, I believe it was made by Detroit Radio who made many radios under other labels, but known as Detrola. The radio is a six-tube super-het chassis with a brand new and super sensitive green tuning eye. The radio also sports six push buttons allowing you to preset the radio to your favorite channels. The radio has a tone control allowing you the ability to custom tailor the sound tones to your personal tastes. This extra feature is of added benefit using the installed min-jack or Bluetooth add on. Les has done his complete professional repairs and the radio plays like new. The relatively larger cabinet adds to the sound and tone quality! I think you will be impressed in every respect with this radio. Bluetooth is available for an additional $25! 19-1/4"W x 10-3/8"H x 9-1/2"D. $695.00. (0961690)

-
Algene AR-5-U Portable w/Snake Skin Case (Cloth/leather tube portable radio) For the collector that has been looking for a radio in a red snake skin cosmetic case, look no further. The radio dates from the late 1940's and sports Lucite knobs, handle and grille. The case shows some wear, but overall in very good original condition including the grille cloth. The power cord is rather short given that you have to store it under the lid. The mirror is a little cloudy from age. It has a lighted dial. The set has been serviced and plays good. 11"W x 7-1/2"H x 6"D. $225.00. (0260697)

American Bosch 144 "Treasure Chest" (1930) (Wood other radio) Here is a seldom seen and quite ornately carved cabinet radio is the shape of a chest or humidor.

This radio was destined for and office or study, with a sophisticated carved front, and top highlighted with a dental edge. The radio is an earlier type of set, what was called a "TRF" circuit analog with a low four-tube count. This radio being so early requires a decent length of antenna wire, which is installed and will receive only the strong local stations. It is the earliest of radio types and this element is normal for this timeline. The radio has been completely refurbished by my professional tech, and plays as good as new! He has added a mini-jack for your ability to input the radio with any modern type of device. Bluetooth is available for only $25! 15-1/2"W x 10"H x 9-1/2"D. $795.00. (0961723)

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)

The grommet that the power cord passes through is missing. The wire on the coils show some fraying. The Bakelite is very good with just a 1/4" hairline at one tube socket in the detector which is hard to see. The model tag is there but missing the warranty tag.

(Wood tube cathedral radio) Nice and Sassy seven-tuber with unique look for sure. AK made some of the best traditional cathedral style radios but this model has a very distinctive arch design, sometimes called "Double-Wide" or "Barn Top," which sets it apart from all others. This model is not offered for sale often, very unique in style and design. It retains its outstanding original finish with amazing veneer and inlays.

Unrestored by me, but does play well across the dial. The power cord + antenna wires have been replaced which leads me to believe it has been restored by previous owner. Notice the beautiful diagonal cut veneer arched over top front as well as the panel below grille area. Just a nice accent to contrast with the other uses of mahogany and walnuts. The Philly AK factory did make some top of the line sets of that era. This is one of the cleanest chassis I've seen and nearly looks chrome, Shipping weight 35 pounds. 17"W x 14"H x 10-1/2"D. $459.00. (1640203) -

Atwater Kent 856 (1935) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) This radio was made in 1935 and Atwater Kent stopped production in 1936.

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)

Belmont 740 (1937)
(Wood tube table radio w/SW) Belmont Radio Corporation based in Chicago, started building radios early on. Advertising stated "Manufacturers of High Grade Radio Receiving Sets Since 1925." In the 1930's, they built wood cathedral styles, wood table sets and consoles, but they are best known for their curvy, streamlined Bakelite designs. The 740 is a seven-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) AC radio. It utilizes two 6F6 tubes for push-pull audio, producing a lot of volume. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A safety fuse, power cord and an audio input were added. Gary did a fantastic refinish, ending up with a hard, "piano" lacquer finish. The original wood knobs are with the set. Belmont made radios for other companies, and this particular model looks a lot like some Airline models I've seen. This is the first one for sale on the Radio Attic, and it's ready for your collection. Come and get it! It won't last long! 20"W x 11-1/2"H x 9"D. $749.00. (1600408) -

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)

Climax "Emerald" (Oval Dial Version) (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)

Continental 62 (1934) (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. Bluetooth is available for only $25 additional! $495.00.

Crosley 154 Mini Cathedral (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 model I can find, so I wanted to restore it. The speaker grille has a bad spot where someone attempted to repair it. The front veneer was in terrible condition and I had to do massive repair work on it. There are a lot of flaws from its 80 plus years of service. The photo finish on the lower left and right columns is missing. I believe the grille cloth is original. The speaker is not original and has a couple of patches on it. I had to paint the chassis. Crosley employed regeneration in the IF/Detector tube to give it the performance of a five-tuber. It has the early 30s antenna swamping volume control. Broadcast only. Requires external antenna. While it has some shortcomings, this radio is extremely rare. None has ever sold on the Attic and the only one on Radio Museum is this one. If you're a Crosley guy, I bet you don't have one of these. 12-1/2"H x 10"W x 8"d. $399.00. (1680085)

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. $749.00. (1600403) -

SOLD! (Plastic tube clock radio) Here is undoubtedly the best example of this iconic Crosley "Dashboard" marque, the model D-25CE in Chartreuse, that I have come across in almost 40 years of radio collecting. It is all-original except for its replacement cord and feet. The original paint retains its factory floor luster, its escutcheons have absolutely no tarnish, and the case is in mint condition free of any cracks, chips or hairlines. The radio works, and the chassis has been restored with all caps and weak tubes replaced. Comes complete with a photocopy of the original operating instructions. 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. $675.00. (1750110) -

I don't think you can find a nicer original set than this one. 10"W x 6"H x 6"D. $125.00. (1270277)
-
Croydon 549 (1937) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Here is a terrific performing and futuristic styled radio made by the Warwick Co. of Chicago.

Davison Haynes Aero (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. There is no schematic for this set and so it is offered primarily for display and preservation. 16-1/2"H x 15"W x 9-1/2"D. $749.00. (0260733)
-
Decca Portable Record Player (about 1960) (Suitcase phonograph) Bring out all of your nice old favorite records, your 78's 45's and 33's too. It will play them all and sounds great.

It has a good cartridge and a new needle. I have gone thru it cleaned and lubed all of the moving parts. The case is solid, shows some wear a few scuffs of course for its age but is pretty fair as you can see. $139.00. (0021448)
-
DeForest Crosley 506A (1933) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) The cabinet is in factory original condition and shows an acceptable level of wear for the 85+ years of service. I believe the cabinet is made of mahogany, with either butt burl of some exotic type of veneer on the front. Note the exquisite hand laid inlay in a diamond pattern further enhancing the front. The radio is complete with handles on either end, so it resembles a fine English tea caddy. The dial configuration is unique as well with a bright and colorful left/right position. The radio is a deluxe receiver working off a sophisticated seven-tube superhet chassis. This model also offers a tone control to allow your tapering of the sound to content and tastes. You might note the shortwave is measured in meters: very British. Everything, speaker cloth and knobs are factory originals. My professional technician as restored the radio to a "like new" operating condition. He is highly impressed with the sophisticated electronic; but the Canadians made superior radios in the time line. His addition of an mini-jack allows your connection to any modern type of device or add a Bluetooth device for only $25 additional! 18"W x 10-1/4"H x 9"D. $995.00. (0961724)

Detrola 4D1 Mini-Cathedral (1934) (Wood tube cathedral radio) This is a smashingly beautiful and detailed mini-cathedral radio. It's a four-tuber, AM band only, original beautiful finish, original ornate knobs, escutcheon, and I think accurate reproduction grille cloth, etc. Beautiful lighted dial. A nice flair is the subdued intricate inlay design on the pilasters. Often times the pictures don't do a radio justice and this is one of those cases... it seriously looks even better in person. The Detrola plaque is original to the radio. Very clean rust-free chassis as you can see. If you are looking for a cutie that doesn't require much shelf space and a little unusual, this is it. My tech as added a mini-jack to allow you to connect the radio to any modern type of device. This will allow you an unlimited choice of content which will allow you to use this with your iPhone, smart phone, iPods, or record player. Add Bluetooth for only $25.00 additional! This has to be one of the smallest cathedrals ever made. 12"H x 10-1/4"W x 6-1/2"D. $695.00. (0961715)
-
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. The sound is outstanding! Requires an external antenna. It must be a good one. My Sweetheart tried to get me to let her keep it! 18"W x 11"H x 9"D. $499.00. (1680080)
-
Detrola 149E Tombstone (1938) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) I love these fantastic radio made by Detroit Radio. The company made similar models for both Sears and Western Auto stores and saved the best for their own label. This terrific set offers a dramatically backlit multi colored dial with detailed station locations. The radio also offers a bright green tuning eye with winks with great sensitivity opening and closing as you fine tune in your station. The radio is an advanced six-tube super-het chassis. The cabinet is tall and slim, with a professional refinished condition along with factory speaker cloth. The knobs, called "acorns," are factory original. My technician has completed his complete repairs and has returned the radio to a "like new" performance. These radios are really fine players! His repairs included a mini-jack to allow your connection of any modern device such as your phone, pad or computer. Add Bluetooth for only $25 additional! 17-1/2"H x 12-1/4"W x 8-3/4"D. $795.00.

EKCO B86 (1935) (Bakelite tube table radio) Our British EKCO radio is a battery set with a strikingly memorable, black Bakelite case. It is prominently featured in Peter Sheridan's fine 2014 collectors' book, titled, "Deco Radios" on page 149. This radio was designed as a long wave and MW/AM radio, but, due to an incident previous to our possession, only the AM band works. Our radio restorer was able to fix its other mechanical problems, and he made it look as good as new, again! He replaced seven elecrolytics, four diodes, the AC power cord and plug, the 8-pin octal plug, the usable antenna coil, ten metalized Mylar film capacitors, four resistors, and the antenna wire. A 120VAC transformer power supply has been designed to supply power to the radio through a battery pack. This historic radio truly looks great and plays well. $2,250.00. (1300081)

Emerson 45 (1935) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Emerson started up in 1915 manufacturing phonographs and producing records in New York City. They started selling radios in 1924, with their first big seller being the "Peewee" in 1932. After the war, they branched out, selling home appliances and later, televisions. The Emerson Corporation is still in business today. The model 45 is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. The capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. The original phono input can be adapted for an external device upon request. The Ingraham cabinet is in great condition and was refinished to a semi-gloss finish. The knobs, chassis and speaker are original to the set. A period-correct reproduction grille cloth was added as well as a new cloth power cord and safety fuse. These early Emerson tombstones are seldom seen, especially in this condition. This one is ready for that special Emerson collector, or for your collection at home. 16"H x 12"W x 9"D. $629.00. (1600375)

Emerson 169 w/Ingraham Cabinet (1937) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) There were no finer crafted radio cabinets than the collaboration between Emerson Radio and the famed clock cabinet maker, Ingraham Cabinets. The use of dramatic exotic veneers married to the solid reliability of Emerson's radios makes these radios a collector's delight. This particular example is all original, with the 85 year old finish showing a bit of wear. I have left it original as stripping the radio would destroy the pin striping highlighting the unique form factor of the cabinet. Inside is a very fine six-tube super-het chassis offering both am and shortwave. With joy, this example retains the factory installed back and Ingraham tag, usually missing. My tech has completed his highly professional repairs and the radio plays as new. He installed our mini-jack to allow you to use the radio with any type of modern device. You can now listen to anything you choose. Stream content using a Bluetooth adapter for only $25 additional! $595.00. (0961684)

Long know for exquisite cabinets and use of the most exotic veneers, the styling of this collection of antique radios is like no others.

The entire cabinet I left original for the advanced collector who prizes originality and still is a fine looking radio.

-
Emerson 414 "Wheat" (1933) (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. This example uses a pin drive high impedance speaker rather than the field coil type as both have shown up with this chassis. Unfortunately I could not adjust this speaker to handle higher volume. Otherwise the chassis has been restored and is receiving several stations that you can listen to at low volume. It is ready for display. 7-1/2"W x 7-1/2"H x 5"D. $595.00. (0260785)

Emerson 540A "Emersonette" (1947) (Plaskon tube table radio) Here is a 1947 "Emersonette" in an extremely rare pistachio green Plaskon case. These cases are very fragile and as a result relatively few have survived. The only flaw to its Plaskon (not painted) case are the two small lacquer burns on its top (the largest of which is 3/8" wide) and one on its front grille, all of which most likely happened in the original molding process. Otherwise the cabinet is in immaculate condition with no hairlines, cracks or chips anywhere, and it still retains its original glossy finish. The grille cloth, black bullet-style knobs, electrical cord and plug, dial, dial glass and almost-perfect back panel that bows out to accommodate a loop antenna are original to the set. The dial lights up beautifully in the dark. All electrolytics and weak tubes have been replaced and a NOS I.F. can installed so it picks up all my local stations loud and clear across the AM dial. This All-American five-tube set is the smallest AC/DC Superhet ever made. Today, the 540A is highly collectible and the red and pistachio green ones in clean, undamaged condition can command a price that runs into four figures. Ready to display and play! About 6-1/2"W x 4-3/4"H x 3-1/4"D. $895.00. (1750098)

Emerson 977 Falcon (Plastic transistor portable radio) Radio just picks up static. The cabinet is really nice but not quite perfect - on inner tab in one corner is a little missing plastic where you can't see it with cover on so it presents really well with most of the paint still on front. This is a rare set and when you fix it (new caps most likely) you'll love it, even the back cover lettering is all there. $70.00. (2430322)

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 AR-171 (1938)
(Wood tube table radio w/SW) As most collectors know, Emerson had an almost exclusive deal with the Ingraham Clock Company to design and manufacture 90% of their wood cabinets. Known for their curvy and angular designs, plus the use of fine veneers, Ingraham cabinets are recognized as some of the finest. They are still highly coveted by collectors today. The AR-171 is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. It's rare to find a six-tube radio with push-pull audio as well. We replaced all of the capacitors with new Mylar caps. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. We installed a new power cord, plenty of antenna wire and an audio input. With that push-pull audio, this radio is a strong performer. Gary stripped off the old finish, and masterfully restored the radio to a beautiful "piano" lacquer finish. The radio has an Ingraham trademark Maple inlay encircling the Walnut cabinet. The original knobs, speaker and chassis are with the radio. This particular model isn't seen much, and is unique in its own right. It can be proudly displayed in any collection, especially the Ingraham collector looking for that seldom seen model. 16-1/2"W x 11"H x 8-1/2"D. $649.00. (1600410) -

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 or Bluetooth for only $25 additional. 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)

Firestone 3-7403-7 "The Strafford" (1941)
(Wood tube table radio w/SW) I really like Firestone "Air Chief" table radios, and I have several in my collection. 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. I went through this radio and replaced all of the capacitors, checked and replaced resistors and tubes, installed a new power cord, dial cover and added an audio input. The radio was aligned and performs strong across the dial, utilizing an internal loop antenna. Steve stripped the cabinet and did some really nice highlighting of the stripe around the cabinet. The final result was a gorgeous piano finish. The radio has the original knobs and back. This beautifully designed radio is ready to add to anyone's collection. 14"W x 8"H x 8"D. $699.00. (1600409) -

Fisher 500-C FM Stereo Receiver (1963) (Metal audio gear w/FM) The Fisher 500-C is one of the finest tube high fidelity stereo receivers -- period.

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. Gilfillan was a better factory, and made fine radios. This particular model is a six-tube super-het delivering both AM and shortwave. The dual lamp dial is crisp and bright for those who favor night time listening. The radio is a fine example of craftsmanship with book matched walnut veneers and it has been refinished nicely with a nice luster. The speaker cloth and fancy wood knobs appear to be factory originals. The radio has been professionally repaired and plays as good as new, with a fine level of sensitivity. The radio also features and tone control for your adjustment to taste of the sound. My technician remarked on the sophistication of the circuit and was equally impressed with the performance. The radio has been fitted with a mini-jack for your ability to add your choice of a modern device as an input. Now you can listen to any kind of content using this connection. Add a Bluetooth device to the set to stream from your Bluetooth enabled device for only $25.00 additional! 14-1/2"H x 12"W x 10-1/2"D. $695.00. (0961679)

Graybar GT-8 Tombstone by RCA (1933) (Wood tube tombstone radio) Graybar Electric was one of the premier electronic distributors in the 1930's. They are still in business today, specializing in commercial electronics instead of consumer products. Like so many other businesses, they want a piece of the consumer market and chose the best company of the early era, RCA. In fact this radio is exactly like an RCA model 71 with the only difference is the dial configuration. RCA held all of the early super-het patents and thus offered the finest products. The chassis is a robust eight-tube model offering AM/broadcast. Massively, the speaker is an oversized 11 inches! The cabinet is in factory original finish in exquisite condition. The speaker cloth is original and perfect along with fancy and embossed factory installed knobs. My technician has completed his professional repairs and the powerful high tube count chassis really sings. All the repairs need have returned this set to a like new condition. Note this radio does not have a mini-jack and will not accept a Bluetooth option. A full sized radio with a large speaker offering tremendous levels of enjoyment! 19"H x 14"W x 11"D. $795.00.

Grunow 550 "Chromefront" (1934) (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. $749.00. (1600389)

Grunow 632 (1937) (Wood tube table radio) The 1937 model 632 is a rather rare variation of the model 588. I have a history with this set as I sold it in Arizona only to find it here in New Mexico 25 years later. It is in excellent original condition with the exception of replacement grille cloth and dial cover. The teledial on these is very attractive and when lit has a 3D effect behind the pointer. The chassis has been cleaned, lubricated and serviced. This set has a 10-inch speaker and it gets strong clear AM reception but little on short wave. 16"W x 10"H x 8-1/2"D. $495.00. (0260793)

Guild TK1577 "Teakettle" (1957) (Wood replica radio) This Guild novelty is an early transistor set, very cutting edge for its vintage. The radio plays loud and clear on and off the charger (the trivet). The rectifier and filter capacitors in the power supply have been replaced with fresh ones. The radio originally had a big square 9 volt battery that isn't manufactured any more. I added eight NIMH 300 MAH "AAA" batteries in the radio. The body is solid wood not veneer. The original finish is pristine. The brass pieces are solid brass, not plated. I polished each piece on a high speed buffer. The white part is porcelain ceramic. There is a small crack in one corner that has been repaired. I will double box the radio and power supply for shipping. 14"H (with trivet) x 10"W x 8"D. $150.00. (1000289)

Gulbranson 1A Tombstone (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. Bluetooth is available for $25 additional. 21-1/2"H x 16-3/4"W x 12"D. $1,295.00. (0961621)

Hallicrafters 5R61 (1955)
SOLD! (Plaskon tube table radio) Hallicrafters was much better known for its amateur radio gear, but they also sold radios and TVs for a few years during the late 1940s and into the 1950s.

The cabinet is free of cracks or any significant chips. The chassis has been restored to work like new, with a strong set of tubes, new capacitors, a few new resistors, and a full RF/IF alignment. A new polarized power cord has been installed, along with appropriate power switch circuit modification to improve safety. The original speaker is in great condition and sounds good.

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 Tombstone (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. So, it is definitely a page out of radio history, and unlike other TRF radios shaped like a coffin it uses only one tuning knob to operate. I also installed a small audio input jack on the back. 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)

Jackson-Bell 62 "Fleur-de-Lis" (1932) (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. $699.00. (1600303)

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. Bluetooth is available for only $25.00 additional! 15-1/4"H x 12-1/2"W x 9-1/2"D. $895.00. (0961711)

International Kadette JS Cathedral (1933) (Wood tube cathedral radio w/SW) I have been at this for over 40 years, yet I have never seen this radio before! This is a high quality model from the Ann Arbor, Michigan factory. The radio is a stunner, with elaborate veneer braiding on either side of the horseshoe dial and brass tags for brand id and band select. Clearly with all of the detail, this model was an expensive model new. Modestly sized, this is a five-tube and early super-het which plays decently on AM, with short and long wave. With the modest size of the tube count, shortwave will be limited. The radio is in stunning factory original condition with only reproduction speaker cloth which is period correct.

He added a mini-jack for your direct connection of any modern type of device and allowing you an unlimited choice of listening please.

Kennedy 42 "Coronet" (1931)
(Wood tube tombstone radio) 1931 Kennedy by The Colin B. Kennedy Company of San Fransisco, CA. Original finish & built like a tank. I could not bring myself to refinish it as it displays very well as is and *only* original once. All I did is wipe it down with Howard's oil. This set is one that you rarely see, and has a very unique cabinet, tulip cutout grille design, with features of both cathedral style and tombstone style cabinets, flaring out at the bottom (unique) It has what appears to be original cloth power cord and Bakelite plug. The three knobs are original as is the speaker, but grille cloth appears to be era correct replacement. Although it is in "as found" condition, it does play well across the dial picking up all my locals and beyond with short wire antenna. This is a very sought after set and this one is as good as it gets. The chassis is gorgeous and very clean, still has its big copper capacitor on the chassis which is always missing on these. This set is as original as you will ever find, if you can even find one of these. This is a very high end set and will be a great addition to the best of collections. They are only original once. 17"H x 16-3/4"W x 10-1/2"D. $750.00. (1640205) -

Knockout Regenerative Receiver (circa 1928) (Wood tube casket radio) From a little off the beaten antique radio path comes this unique and interesting little Knockout regenerative receiver. During my research of this set, a vigorous discussion ensued as to whether it was a factory made radio, a kit radio, or just homemade. In any case, it really is quite a "knockout." When I got it, the original bus style wiring had been removed and replaced with modern wire. I removed all of that and rewired it with period appropriate 12 gauge bus wire with a lot of help and parts from my new friend Chas. It is fitted with a high testing UX-201A tube, and works quite well. It works well with a 4.5V to 6V "A" cell and a 24V "B" cell. This can be four "D" cells and three 9V batteries. Requires high impedance headphones of roughly 2000 ohms. For an additional $35 I will include a period appropriate set of those. I know this radio isn't for everyone, but I hope someone will take a shine to it. If you are not familiar with regenerative receivers, you should do some research before buying this set. 12"W x 8"H x 8"D. $179.00. (1680035)

Lafayette M-33 (1933) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Lafayette sourced their product lines from the best factories and labeled the items as "house brands." This radio was made for them by American Mohawk which labeled under the Lyric and Wurlitzer for direct marketing efforts. The radio before you is a very early seven-tube super-het with the AM/broadcast band.

The cabinet has been professionally refinished and the speaker cloth period correct. Note the extremely ornate wood knobs, factory originals and how dramatically they add to the set's beauty!

Majestic 5A430 (1946) (Wood tube table radio) Lovely Majestic manufactured immediately post WWII, with the original grille cloth (all three sides), original knobs and original back. The 5A430 came in two cabinet styles and I believe this design is much more stylish and classier, also somewhat more difficult to find. This cabinet has been refinished using the very finest toning and finishing lacquers, producing a wonderful luster, paying respect to the original finish. The electronics have been completely restored (no shortcut repairs, internally fused for your safety with a polarized power cord) and it plays very nicely on the AM band with its internal loop antenna and picks up all my AM local stations. I have added an MP3 input so you may listen to your own supplied music if you wish. 11-1/4"W x 7-1/8"H x 7-3/4"D. $185.00. (1390371)

This cabinet has been refinished using the very finest wood grain filler and lacquers, producing a wonderful luster, paying respect to the original detailed finish, with accents on the veneer inlays. Grille cloth was replaced with new period specific fabric. The electronics have been completely restored (no shortcut repairs, internally fused for your safety) and for a TRF, it plays nicely on the AM band & Shortwave band with the included length of antenna wire. A solid compliment to anyone's collection! 12-3/4"W x 8-5/8"H x 6-1/2"D. $389.00. (1390369)

Majestic 93 (1930) (Wood tube console radio) Majestic 93 (1930) BC. This spectacular set is featured on the cover of Alan Douglas' book "Radio manufacturers of the 1920's" with its stunningly massive cabinet draped with ornate burled walnut veneers! $167 when new, the chassis is an eight-tube TRF 90B and one of the first of the AC console sets, has a distance/local antenna feature and works incredibly well for such an early design. The original knobs are still with it and the grille cloth is an exact replica of the original. The original back is also still with the set. This set has an auxiliary input installed, however this does not use the sets volume control. Fully restored and warranted. 44-1/2"H x 28"W x 17"D. $575.00. (0100170)

Majestic 194 Mini-Cathedral (1933)
(Wood tube cathedral radio w/SW) Beautiful four-tube AM/police band "mini cathedral" model 194 by Grigsby-Grunow Majestic, about as stylish as they come. Quite difficult to come by, these are always popular among collectors due to the unusual Gothic design and compact size. Cabinet finish, wood knobs and copper dial face are all original. Only the grille cloth on the cabinet was replaced with the correct pattern. An extremely cramped chassis that required the removal of the power transformer and tuner just to replace components (some 20 components in all were replaced, including a new volume control/switch, filter and paper caps, a number of out of tolerance resistors, and new cloth line cord). Two of the four tubes are NOS, the other two tested very strong. The 89 year-old power transformer is fused for protection. Requires a long wire antenna for reception. Plays as well as can be expected for a finicky four-tuber with no AVC. The volume control is part of the antenna circuit, so the louder the volume, the stronger the stations will come in but it will blast if you go from a distant station to a local station (both hands are needed on the controls as you tune!). 14"H x 9-1/2"W x 6-1/2"D. $299.00. (1790073) -

The set still has its original line cord as well. The set has been electronically restored and plays great. The chassis is very clean in this set as well as the speaker, all excellent. If you are looking for an all original set then this is the one. These sets are very desirable and hard to come by. 12-1/2"W x 11-1/2"H x 7-1/2"D. $479.00. (0620117)

Mantola R401 (1937) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) This beautiful set seldom shows up for sale, as it is fairly rare.

Mantola R-654-PM (1946) (Bakelite tube table radio) This beautiful Bakelite Mantola R-654-PM was manufactured in 1946 for the B.F. Goodrich Company to be sold in their Silvertown tire stores. This radio was manufactured by Continental Radio and Television, later known as Admiral. The case has been cleaned and polished and looks great. Internally, all of the capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents and have all of the out of tolerance resistors. I have also repainted the dial pointer and backdrop to the original colors. This radio sounds fantastic as I was getting strong reception at night from stations over 500 miles from our Pennsylvania location. A neat feature of this radio is the original O.P.A. sticker on the back. The Office of Price Administration started on August 28, 1941 and ended on May 29, 1947 and served to control prices during World War II. This sticker indicates the maximum price that this radio could have been sold for in specific states. In summary, a beautiful, quality, and interesting radio sold by B.F. Goodrich. 12"W x 8"H x 7"D. $199.00. (1780019)

Marconi 49 Tombstone (1934) (Wood tube tombstone radio) From our good friends north of the border comes this very striking 1934 Marconi model 49 tombstone. These Marconi guys weren't fooling around. They covered this radio with expensive, ornate veneers, even throwing in a little marquetry. The six-tube chassis is very well designed. The two-knob vernier tuning is smooth and precise and the sound is very good from the perfect 6-inch speaker. The finish is slick and gorgeous, with only a few minor flaws. A full set of high testing tubes, all new capacitors, including stuffing the electrolytics, resistors as necessary and a full alignment. This radio is as rare as it is beautiful. Only one has sold on the Attic, clear back in 2013. Don't miss your chance! 17-1/2"H x 15"W x 10"D. $699.00. (1680092)

Matheson-Bell AC-55-35 Tombstone (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)

The boat was refinished too, and I put in a new dial cover for it. It does have a lighted dial. The shiny chrome sails look pretty good after all it's 76 years there is some pitting that's to be expected. I just cleaned and polished them.

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. It has a little ~1/2" crack top right and a repaired chip bottom right that was done pretty well. Furthermore, there's a hairline on the front (right side of reverse paint) but because it's on the side it doesn't stand out. It looks to me that someone might have re-painted the grille at some time but I'm not positive. Despite the flaws, this is one really nice radio. $130.00. (1430769)

Minerva W-710 (1947) (Wood tube table radio) I had never heard of Minerva corporation of New York until I saw this little gem at an antique mall a while back. The W-710 outclasses a lot of radios in its market segment with an extremely well made, hand rubbed solid Walnut cabinet, a dedicated RF amplifier tube, a flywheel tuner control for speedy tuning, and a large, 6-inch speaker for excellent sound reproduction. The six-tube chassis is a good performer, receiving fairly well on the internal antenna with an external wire for more distant stations. A large, attractive dial lets you tune without your reading glasses. I touched up a previous cabinet job and overcoated it with five coats of Lacquer. The resulting finish is very nice, with a few minor flaws and one small crack in the upper right corner. One small, 1/2" repair to the speaker cone. Minerva was a small company, but don't let that deter you. This is an attractive, well made and very good performing radio. Very few of these have survived. Only one has sold on the Attic. Minerva was the goddess of wisdom and art. I'm sure it would please her if you help me save her namesake radio! 15-1/2"W x 9-1/2"H x 8-1/2"D. $225.00. (1680097)

Norco 160 (1935) (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.

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.

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.

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)

Parmak 734 "Masterpiece" Tombstone (1937) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) The famed Parker McCrory Mfg of Kansas City, MO. made this radio. I have only seen three of these in 45+ years of active collecting. The two-band radio is filled with a super advanced two-band receiver. The radio also has dual speakers, offering a sound and volume quality, unlike any other table set. The radio is also very unusual in size and shape. Note the curved corners of exotic striped mahogany veneers. As you can see, the condition is outstanding; a few bumps from 8+ decades of use and all parts are original to the radio, with the tight and original speaker cloth. Add the quality restoration with all new filters, caps and tubes as needed, and this most special radio is set for decades to come. If you are that level of collector who cherishes the very finest and rarest sets, this is a solid find! My tech has added a mini-jack to the electronics to allow your connection of any modern type of device. Now you can listen to your personal choice of music through the radio. Bluetooth is available for only $25 additional. 22-1/2"H x 16"W x 9-1/2"D. $995.00. (0961641)

Picks up local stations on its internal antenna, but has an external antenna wire which is grounded to the back of the set but can be used if you want to get more distance. I have added a cable for your mobile devices. Not a particularly old set but fairly uncommon.

Philco 75 "Hippo" (Canada-1948)
SOLD! (Plastic tube table radio) The Philco "hippo" models have long been a favorite among collectors, because of their impressive lighted dial using an early form of fiber optic light diffusion through clear plastic. While plentiful, this particular model is somewhat more rare as it is a Canadian produced model 75, which is equivalent to the US model 48-460. There are a few subtle differences, mainly the dial lamp mount utilizing a "night light" bulb that is attached to the dial pointer so the light follows as you tune via a small mirror mounted above it. A very cool effect in a darkened room! The six-tube chassis has been gone through with all new filter and paper capacitors, resistors changed that were out of tolerance, strong tested set of tubes, new line cord, controls cleaned and lubricated. It plays well across the AM band with its loop antenna. Original back is intact and in nice shape. The cabinet is all original natural finish with one minor stress crack on the bottom around a chassis mounting hole that has been reinforced inside. 12"W x 7-1/2"H x 6-3/4"D. I offer a quantity discount on my radios: take any two priced at $129 for $240 total (shipping not included). $129.00. (1790072) -
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. $375.00. (1680076)

Philco 90 (middle, 1932) (Wood tube cathedral radio) Well, I finally got my hands on the king of the cathedrals, and I didn't squander it. This gorgeous Philco 90 "middle" model with the single 47 output tube came to me in pretty sad condition. I spent over 100 hours making it as nearly new as I could. No less than 18 coats of lacquer and three sanding operations highlight the stunning exotic veneers Philco put on this extraordinary radio. The finish is slick and gorgeous. Globe style tubes testing 80% or better everywhere you can see them. I stuffed all of the capacitors to maintain original look and performance. Resistors as necessary and a full alignment. The sound from the massive 8-inch speaker is outstanding. One small 1/2" patch by a previous servicer. Receiver sensitivity is quite good. In case you thought they were all gone, here's your chance! AM only. Requires an external antenna. It is very heavy, so shipping is going to be a bit steep. 19"H x 17"W x 12"D. $950.00. (1680089)
-
Philco 90 Cathedral (1932) SOLD! (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 '30s 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. There is a four-step tone control for better control over the radio's tone. 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 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 cabinet that has great veneer. The radio retains its original speaker and knobs. We installed a new reproduction grille cloth. It's an awesome radio, beautifully restored and ready to compliment your collection. 18-1/2"H x 17-1/2"W x 12"D. $995.00. (1600382)

Philco 650 Tombstone (1936) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Here is a terrific radio. Philco made some of the best and this high tube count (eight tubes) was next to one other model, the best they made. Shaped with a tapered "sky scraper" cabinet, these radios were futuristic looking radios. The only larger "skyscraper" is the eleven-tube model 166B. The powerful chassis is a fine super-het offering both AM and shortwave. Everything is factory original with the cabinet showing a modest amount of wear. I decided to simply clean and oil this example as the originality was pretty good. The speaker cloth and knobs are the factory originals. My technician has completed his professional repairs and the performance is outstanding. Added to the circuit is a 3.5 mm mini-jack allowing your attachment of any modern device.

Philco 676 "Mustang" Portable (Cloth/leather tube portable radio) To all of you University of Texas fans out there, "Hook 'em Horns!" This radio's case is "leather tough" and "leather handsome," as it was made from top grain cowhide and is in excellent condition. The case's reverse side features a very familiar Texas symbol! This model was part of their Rough Rider Series of mid-50s portable radios which were advertised as being "built for hard outdoor life...they won't chip, warp, or break." This Philco series also included the "Sportster," "Knockabout," and "Rancher." Each had a case that snapped open for easy change-over from AC/DC to batteries. Our superheterodyne chassis performs well, as our technician replaced three metalized film capacitors and one AC power plug, replaced an open capacitor, tested tubes, and aligned IF and RF sections. He also cleaned and oiled the leather case. As an added bonus, the purchaser of this radio will receive a 1956 copy of the Philco print advertisement from which today's write-up was composed! $250.00. (1300053)

Philco PT-49 Transitone "Harp" (1940) (Wood tube table radio) Just restored! Introduced in June 1940 as part of Philco's 1941 lineup, just 5,700 sets were produced of this beautiful pre-War radio. The very striking harp-shaped walnut case with Zebrawood veneer trim was just refinished and hand polished to a gorgeous patina. Its vertical louvered grille is in mint condition. Its claw feet, knobs, speaker cloth, dial, dial cover and power cord are all original. The dial lights up beautifully in the dark. This set has been electronically restored and puts out big sound across the AM dial thanks to its five tubes and 6-inch electrodynamic speaker which provide outstanding resonant tone and great sensitivity. A portion of its bottom label remains. The back panel is a replacement. This is an excellent near mint example of an obscure radio that would be a terrific addition to any collection.

Pilot 183 (1935) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Pilot Electric Manufacturing Company was founded in Brooklyn NY, by Isidor Goldberg in 1922. The company had several businesses, located in New York, Long Island and Massachusetts. They made early TRF sets and tubes. Pilot radios were also manufactured in England and Italy for the European market prior to WWII. The Pilot 183 is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. The capacitors were replaced with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse, auxiliary input and antenna lead were installed. The cabinet has Walnut, Maple, Australian Laurel and Zebrawood veneers. Gary refinished it to a beautiful lacquer "piano" finish. The radio has the original knobs, chassis and speaker. A period-correct grille cloth was installed. Pilot radios of this quality are very hard to find, and are a great addition to any serious collection. Make this one yours today! 16"H x 13"W x 9"D. $895.00. (1600370)

Pilot G294-B (1939) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Designed as a export model, the radio processes a huge transformer allowing for the 220 volts more common elsewhere. We have set it for 115-120 volts for the American domestic market. The radio is of the highest grade, with four band capabilities but with two of them vacant today offers both AM and Shortwave. The radio is a highly sophisticated seven-tube model with a bright and new green tuning eye. Note the messily scaled and highly detailed dial. The speaker cloth is period correct reproduction and the knobs the proprietary factory installed ones. The cabinet is dramatic with the most outrageous use of exotic veneers and a professional refinish in a super high gloss Sherwin Williams lacquer. My tech has completed his trained professional repairs and the radio is quite special. His work included adding a mini-jack for your connection to any modern type of device or one of our Bluetooth receivers for only $25. 20"H x 15-1/2"W x 12"D. $1,595.00. (0961720)

The cabinet has its original finish which I waxed. There is some finish loss on the front and right side but it displays very well. The dial cloth has a small tear. The radio is extremely well built and weighs 41.5 lbs! It will be well packed and shipped at cost, no markup. I ship by FedEx Ground. Local pickup is OK too, near Spartanburg, SC. $495.00. (1160069)

RCA 9TX-3 "Little Nipper" (1939) (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. $695.00. (1600398)

RCA 16T4 (1940)
(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. Steve stripped the unique Walnut cabinet, and ended up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The original knobs, six inch speaker and chassis are with the set. A unique RCA to add to you collection and is priced right! 19"W x 10"H x 8-1/2"D. $699.00. (1600405) -

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. $350.00. (1680056)

The "Tuna Boat" as it is known to collectors is the largest Catalin radio ever made. It is from my smoke free and pet free personal collection.

RCA Victor 66X8 Catalin "Tuna Boat" (1946) (Catalin tube table radio) Known to collectors as the "Tuna Boat," this Catalin cabinet with a very low serial number has the distinction of being the largest Catalin radio ever manufactured.

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 128 Tombstone (1935) (Wood tube tombstone 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 to use the patents, but they had to meet some strict standards and manufacture their radios in the Gilfillan factory. This six-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) with its new "magic brain" circuitry, which was basically tuned RF with VCA, and a gorgeous cabinet design was a great seller for RCA. This radio has a ton of volume and a tone control with wonderful fidelity through an 8-inch speaker. We went in and replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The tubes and resistors were checked, replacing where necessary. A safety fuse was added along with an external audio cable and a new power cord. Gary did a complete restoration on the cabinet.

RCA RGA12Y (1965?) (Plastic tube table radio) This RCA RGA12Y is a pretty little thing that mom and dad probably got for their daughter for her college dorm room. There isn't much in the radio literature about it, but it had to be one of the last of the tube type AM only table radios. The cabinet is very nice, maybe not quite as white as my LED lighting and camera made it. The receiver sensitivity is fairly good on the internal antenna, and the sound is fairly decent from the 4-inch speaker. I replaced all the capacitors and gave it a good set of tubes. I have no idea what it is worth, but it was just too nice to throw away. I sure hope someone will take a shine to it and give it a good home. 10-1/2"W x 7"H x 4"D. $45.00. (1680072)

RCA T8-14 Tombstone (1939) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) I am extremely fond of most RCA products as they offer very advanced electronics and super reliable service. This less common model is an example of my thoughts offering macro/micro tuning with concentric controls and multiple stepped tone control. The radio is a full range broadcast/shortwave radio with terrific performance characteristics. The radio is an eight-tube model, super-het chassis which was the best technology of the time. The radio has been dramatically refinished by a prior owner and the work is spectacular. The speaker cloth is a perfect reproduction and knobs are the factory installed ones from 80+ years ago. I noted a faint marking on the dial from age, which after 80+years is not uncommon. There are no reproductions available. My technician has done a complete repair and the radio plays like new. His professional repairs include a mini-jack to allow you to connect the radio to any modern device. Bluetooth is available for only $25.00 additional! 21-1/2"H x 16"W x 10-1/2"D. $895.00. (0961704)
-
RCA T-9-10 (1938) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Perhaps one of the finest radios ever made, this set is a beast. If you want a tremendous player, this is about as good as it gets! This is an extremely large and heavy radio, to accommodate the huge nine-tube chassis in a fancy ornate cabinet. This radio employs the best of the super-het technology and is highlighted with a super sensitive eye tube, winking as you dial between the stations. Note the small crack in the dial, which unless you look for it, it isn't a problem. The cabinet has been refinished by a previous collector who replaced the speaker cloth with an exact reproduction. His work was very good. My professional technician has given the radio a complete repair and added a mini-jack for your attachment of any modern type of device. Note the elaborate controls to allow the tapering of the sound to your individual tastes. Bluetooth is available for only $25 additional! 21-3/4"H x 17"W x 12-3/4"D. $995.00. (0961658)

Remler 5100 "Scotty" (1941) (Plaskon tube table radio) A beautiful white polished Plaskon case featuring an adorable black Scottish Terrier on the front along with a West Coast stationized dial. This one has been in my collection over 25 years, as I have owned and loved Scotty dogs for many decades. As usual for Plaskon, this one has several stress cracks in its case, with a visible repaired crack on the top. The electronics have been completely restored (no shortcut repairs, internally fused for your safety and has a new polarized power cord), and it plays very nicely on the AM broadcast band with the included length of antenna wire. I have added an MP3 input so you may listen to your own supplied music if you wish. 11-1/4"W x 6"H x 7-1/2"D. $139.99. (1390357)

Silver-Marshall 846 Tombstone (1935) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Silver-Marshall was a terrific Chicago based factory and among collectors prized for the tremendous quality they built. This is exactly one of their best with a fantastic brightly lit multi colored dial nearly 7 inches across. The radio has been refinished by the previous owner and the work is very good. There is one small repair to the back top corner which is difficult to see in my photos. The speaker cloth is period correct reproduction and the factory installed knobs. Contained within is a eight-tube super-het chassis which plays on both AM and shortwave. My tech has completed his highly professional repairs and remarked on how powerful the radio is as a player. A mini-jack has been installed to allow your connection of any modern device. Now listen through your radio from your phone, tablet or computer. Add a Bluetooth device for only $25 additional! $799.00. (0961492)

-
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. $250.00. (1340194)

Silvertone 1909 (1935) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) The 1900 series Silvertones are some of my favorites. Most of them are gorgeous tombstones with different "airplane" dials. They use the code 101.xxx chassis. That chassis was used for hundreds of models from 1930 to 1938 and was manufactured by Colonial. Silvertone used dozens of furniture companies to manufacture their cabinets, and were of a high quality. The 1909 is a seven-tube, three-band (AM, SWx2) radio. All of the capacitors were replaced with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse, audio input and antenna lead were installed. Gary completely restored the cabinet back to it's original beauty, ending up with a gorgeous "piano" finish. The original knobs, chassis and Rola speaker are present, and a reproduction grille cloth was added. The 1900 series Silvertones are gorgeous radios, and here's a perfect example to show off in your collection! 19-1/4"H x 14"W x 12"D. $695.00. (1600399)
-
Silvertone 1954X (1936)
(Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Here is a nice and reliable player. Made for Sears by one of the finest contract factories, these compact tombstone models offered inexpensive and solid performance. The radio has been refinished by a previous collector and the work was nice. There are a few scratches on the right side, which is predictable for the 8+ decades of use. The factory added striped African mahogany on the face to embellish the look. The speaker cloth and knobs are correct factory originals. The six-tube super-het chassis offers both AM and shortwave reception. The radio also has a full range tone control allowing you to adjust the sound tone to your tastes. My technician has given the radio a complete update adding a mini-jack for your direct connection to any kind of modern device. Add a Bluetooth device for only $25.00 additional! 16-1/4"H x 11-3/4"H x 10"D. $459.00. (0961733) -

-
Silvertone 3869 (1938) SOLD! (Wood tube table radio) They are some models of radios where one can't find much information, and this Silvertone is one of them. What I do know is that it was made by Mission Bell, who was a Los Angeles company. I am also going to guess that it was made in the Gilfillan factory. One thing I have noticed is that a lot of Gilfillan chassis bolts come up from the bottom of the cabinet through the chassis and are fastened by a nut on TOP of the chassis. This is the case with this radio. The 3869 is a six-tube, AM only, AC radio. It has plenty of volume and good selectivity across the dial. The chassis restoration was done by a known radio guy in Oregon. The capacitors were all replaced, the resistors and tubes checked and replaced where needed. A new antenna lead was installed and I put an audio cable in for your external devise. The cabinet is original (restored). The knobs, grille cloth and speaker are all original to the radio. The Art Deco dial is in perfect condition and lights up nicely. This is a good-looking walnut cabinet and a very good performer. This radio will give you many years of listening pleasure and is priced to sell! 14"W x 8"H x 7"D. $399.00. (1600300)
-
Silvertone 4204 (1954) (Plaskon tube table radio w/FM) This mid-century Silvertone eight-tube AM-FM radio has a beautiful red Plaskon cabinet in superb condition, with no cracks, chips, or significant scratches. This not a painted Bakelite. It is Plaskon & looks like poured Catalin with swirls in the material on both top and sides. Not many of these cabinets were made and this particular one is seldom seen. Sorry, I could not capture swirls with camera. It maintains most of the factory schematic tag on the bottom + two full paper labels inside of the cabinet. The transparent dial window is edge lighted when set to AM, giving a nice visual effect under low lighting conditions. When set to FM, the rotating dial/pointer is backlit, with the FM scale illuminated in red along with an "FM" indicator (see dial closeup picture). Performs well on FM with the built-in antenna, but not so well on AM, tho it does play better with longer antenna wire. If you plan to play daily, it may need some “tweaking” on the AM band. All cabinet parts (less replacement grille cloth) appear to be original including the knobs which still have printed "On/Off," "Tuning," and "AM/FM" on the brass "brights." 13-1/2"W x 7"H x 8"D. $189.00. (1640179)
-
Silvertone 4463 (1937) (Wood tube tombstone radio) Dating from 1937, this model displays the large round dial that had become popular. The cabinet was restored at sometime in the past. There is a repair in the dial escutcheon above 1000 on the dial. Overall the radio displays well. It retains the original grille cloth and knobs. The chassis has been serviced and is complete with original speaker. The radio plays receiving AM and short wave. 16-1/2"H x 12-1/2"W x 9"D. $449.00. (0260795)
-
Silvertone 4662 w/Ingraham Cabinet (1938) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) You are looking at a terrific example of a rare radio. This style is one of the most valuable of all of the Ingraham Cabinet radios made by Silvertone. The radio enjoys the unusual form with a curved speaker opening, and with reproduction speaker cloth, and perfect Tenite escutcheon and knobs. The condition is spectacular retaining the foil Ingraham badge on the rear of the cabinet. The radio chassis is a six-tube super-het, playing on both broadcast and shortwave. The bright new green tuning eye is particularly sensitive and active. Note the highly detailed metal dial with dramatic display of domestic clear channel stations and international shortwave locations. The dial lights brightly in a darkened room. My tech has given special attention to this investment grade set, and it performs in a terrific manner. Add to the set is a mini-jack to allow your connection of the radio to any modern device. This allows you to enjoy any content of your choice and add Bluetooth for an additional $25! 15-1/2"H x 12-3/4"W x 10"D. $1,295.00. (0961622)

Silvertone 4665 (1937)
(Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Sears offered the consumer a lot of products. From toothbrushes to entire homes. Most of their products were of a high quality, and the radios they sold were no exception. The cabinets and chassis were manufactured by some of the best radio and furniture manufacturers in America. The 4665 is an eight-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) radio, and was towards the top of the line in 1937. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. We installed a new power cord, safety fuse, audio input and antenna lead. The radio, performs with lots of volume and tone with great sensitivity across the dial. This radio came from a long-time Seattle collector and has an older, but nice cabinet restoration. The original knobs, chassis and speaker are with the set, and a reproduction grille cloth was added. This beauty has a very similar "tapered" cabinet to the popular model 4465. Wide at the bottom tapering up and is a little narrower at the top. The model 4665 doesn't turn up often, and there has been only one on the Radio Attic.

Silvertone 6120A (1939)
SOLD! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) One of the most beautiful Silvertone radios ever produced.

Stewart-Warner R-104A Cathedral (1932) (Wood tube cathedral radio) This is just a beautiful looking cathedral radio made by Stewart-Warner in 1932. It was purchased in Wilmington, North Carolina some 15 years ago. Been with me ever since. The ornate cabinet is in superb original condition. It is a large six-tube cathedral with an 8-inch speaker that looks like new (see pic). The chassis is as clean as you get with an 80 year old radio and all six tubes were good. I replaced all the electrolytic and wax capacitors, as well as most of the resistors which were out of tolerance. It plays loud and clear. The power cord, antenna wire and ground wire are all new. It was cleaned, oiled and aligned for peak performance. The speaker grille cloth and knobs are original and in excellent condition. Six month warranty. 19"H x 14"W x 12"D. $495.00. (0040354)

Stewart-Warner R-110AT Tombstone (1933) (Wood tube tombstone 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. $995.00. (1600350)

Stewart-Warner R-176 (1935)
(Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Stewart-Warner started up in Chicago in the early 1900's. Known to this day for automobile instrumentation, their speedometers were used initially in the Ford model T, and they quickly grew into a large, international company. They were a diverse company, and manufactured radios starting in 1925, ending production in 1954. The R-176 was a Canadian made seven-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked, replacing where necessary. We installed a new power cord, safety fuse and audio input cable. The cabinet has Walnut, maple and mahogany veneers. Stewart-Warner is known for their gorgeous cabinets, and this one is no exception. Gary stripped off the old finish. He restored the cabinet, ending up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. This unique radio is one of those "hard-to-find" sets. It is a good performer, and a great addition to anyone's collection. 15"H x 13"W x 9-1/2"D. $749.00. (1600402) -
Stewart-Warner R520 (Cloth/leather tube table radio) This caramel-colored leatherette radio features an easy-to-read, well-defined dial. It retains its original logo decal above its dial as well.

The speaker was replaced, the IF & RF were aligned, and its case and covering were cleaned and repaired. This radio plays well. 14-1/2"W x 7-1/2"H x 6-5/8"D. $410.00. (1300060)

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)

Triangle Industries 8U-127 Tombstone (1939) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) You are looking at a very scarce and fantastic radio. The radio is actually a Wells-Gardner marketed under the Triangle label. The company made few under their own label but served the best of the major retailers with house brand labels. This radio offers AM and Shortwave with a deluxe eight-tube chassis and a super sensitive tuning eye. The cabinet is unusually large to house a full range 8-inch speaker. The radio from an electronic standpoint is superb. The cabinet is dramatic in scale to accommodate the high tube count along with an elaborate chevron veneer pattern on the waterfall and top. All is factory original and in amazing condition for the age. Note the unique wood knobs. My technician has completed his repairs and reports the radio is like new.

Truetone D-723 "Truetone Tulip" (1937) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Truetone radios were manufactured by Detrola and were sold in Western Auto Stores. Several Detrola models crossed over to Truetone, Silvertone and Aria brands, just to name a few. The most valuable model was the "Egyptian" which were Detrola radios with a model for Truetone and a model for Silvertone. The radios were basically the same with small cabinet and dial differences. The D-723 is a seven-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) set. The radio has Push-Pull output utilizing two 42 output tubes through an 8-inch speaker. We replaced all of the capacitors. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse, audio input and antenna lead were added. A precision alignment was performed, and the radio has a lot of volume and great sensitivity across the dial. Gary stripped off the old finish, then refinished the Walnut and Maple veneers, ending up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. Gary installed a crystal-clear dial cover and a period-correct grille cloth. The radio has the original knobs, chassis and Rola speaker. If you are looking for a "Tulip," It would be difficult to find a nicer version than this one! 20"W x 11"H x 9"D. $995.00. (1600400)

The speaker cloth is a correct period replacement and the knobs are factory. The chassis is a very sophisticated eight-tube super-het offering both AM and Shortwave. My professional tech has completed his highly professional repairs and the radio is a powerhouse. My tech added a mini-jack to the circuit and you can input from any modern device. The radio offers a tone control which will allow you to tailor the sound to your tastes. Listen to the radio or your phone, pad or computer, this radio is a terrific radio to listen to.

Truetone D-727 (1938) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) This is the finest all original examples I have seen of this highly sought model.

Tuska 228 Regenerative Receiver (1924) (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. $399.00. (1680063)

Yaesu FRG-7 Shortwave Receiver (1977) (Metal communications gear w/SW) I am not a Ham radio operator, but I put a long antenna on it and it did pick up quite a few Shortwave stations. The lights work and it has a battery pack in it for battery operation. It has all it parts and is a clean radio. It comes with the instruction manual. I only clean/lubed the pots and gears but did not restore it. So I can only guarantee it will turn on (lights include) and pick up shortwave stations when it arrives. You can only return it if the above does not happen. These run close to $1000 in Japan. You see them untested for $325 to $500 and tested above $500. So my price is a bargain for one that works. $345.00. (0040387)

Zenith 4-G-800ZY "Zenette" (1948)
(Plastic tube portable radio) I have had this cute little portable since 7th grade, where I bought it at what was called a "White Elephant" sale, benefiting a school charity. A dear radio collector friend borrowed it and lovingly restored the electronics as a surprise birthday gift for me. It plays on both regular AC with the new internally fused power cord and on batteries; however, those batteries are no longer available. With the antenna built into the flip top cover, it pulls in all kinds of AM stations and sounds wonderful. I've had it some 60 years and it's time to make this Zenette yours! 8"W x 5-1/2"H x 4"D. $139.00. (1390375) -

Zenith 5-R-216 "Cube" (1938) SOLD! (Wood tube table radio) The Zenith "Cube" radios were very popular and great sellers for the company. They started a trend with other manufacturers producing their own cube radios. Silvertone, Stewart-Warner, Detrola and others all had their version of the cube. The cube design is still very popular with collectors today. Zenith had seven cube designs and the 5-R-216 was their entry level cube radio. A five-tube, AM-only AC set, it's still a very good radio with good sensitivity and volume. 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 and an audio cable to access an external device were installed. The walnut cabinet was completely restored, and it's gorgeous. Most of Zenith's radios had "piano" lacquer finishes, and this cube has that "factory fresh" look. We have the original knobs, chassis and side-mounted speaker. A period-correct grille cloth was installed. Here is yet another Zenith "Cube" that belongs in someone's collection...could that be you? 12"H x 10"W x 9-1/2"D. $499.00. (1600369)

Zenith 5-R-312 (1939) (Bakelite tube table radio) These sets became popular with collectors over 30 years for the classic Deco styling. Designed by Robert Budlong, this 1939 Zenith remains just as popular today. This one has been repainted in the correct antique ivory paint which matches the original paint on the base. It was an extra $2.00 for painted Bakelite, so far less were sold. Otherwise this set is all original including the dial cover. The chassis serviced, cleaned, lubricated and displays like new.

These are one of the most popular models, nicely sized and a solid player. Bluetooth is available for $25! 17-1/4"H x 13-3/4"W x 9"D. $895.00. (0961722)

Zenith 5-S-319 (1939)
(Wood tube table radio w/SW) Here is a classic Zenith with attractive "Racetrack" dial and is a highly sought-after and excellent performing radio. It is a five-tube Superheterodyne, with Broadcast and Short Wave bands (550-1700 KC, 5.5-18.5 MC) and plays great on both bands using a short wire antenna (supplied), picking up all my locals and beyond. The beautiful, lighted, gold dial and tuning is excellent and the push-button selectors all work properly. Appears to be original finish as the faux finished band is still intact on right hand side as you can see. The knobs, dial, push buttons all appear original and the new grille cloth is period correct and looks stunning. The filter caps, all paper caps, and grille cloth were replaced, all tubes checked, weak ones replaced, and alignment performed to peak performance. Chassis is super clean, no rust! Excellent condition for an 83 yr old radio showing very little wear... simply nice! This would be a wonderful addition to any collection. Shipped weight is 18 lbs. 13"W x 9"H x 8"D. $499.00. (1640201) -
Zenith 5-S-319 (1939) (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. $750.00. (1680051)

Zenith 5-S-319 "Racetrack" (1939)
(Wood tube table radio w/SW) I've written about Zenith changing over from large tombstone and "Walton" type radios to a different look and approach at the end of the 1930's into the 1940's. The 5-S-319 for the 1939 model year resembled their "cube" design, but certainly looked like a small version of the 1940 style table radio. The curved side-speaker grille and a more "rounded" design was a sign of things to come. The oval iconic "Racetrack" dial bezel is still very collectable. The 5-S-319 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. All of the capacitors were replaced with modern equivalents. The tubes and resistors were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, audio cable and antenna lead were installed. The radio plays great, and the audio cable works quite well. Steve stripped, grain-filled, and painted the radio and finished with a "piano" lacquer finish. The radio was missing the iconic Zebrawood decal, so Steve replaced it with a strip of real Zebrawood veneer! The radio has the original knobs, push buttons, speaker, chassis and a reproduction Zenith grille cloth. Here is a perfect example of the desirable "Racetrack" Zenith radio! 13"W x 9"H x 7-1/2"D. $799.00. (1600407) -
Zenith 5-S-327 "Racetrack" Tombstone (1939) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Zenith produced several models of radios in the 1930's that were great sellers for the company at the time, and over the years, certain models had "staying power" and collectors coveted them for their design and workmanship. The 5-3-319 "Racetrack" radio, named for its oval dial, was one such radio. The dial was used in a few models, the rarest being the radio we show here today, the tombstone version of the "Racetrack" radio. The 5-S-327 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. The capacitors have been replaced with new, Mylar equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. A new power cord, safety fuse, antenna lead and audio input were installed. The radio has great tone and volume, coupled with lots of sensitivity across the dial. The cabinet was stripped, sanded and grain-filled. The final finish is a beautiful, polished "piano" lacquer. The radio has its original knobs, speaker, chassis and grille cloth. This is the first tombstone Racetrack we have found, and it's been restored and is ready to grace your collection! 16"H x 11-1/2"W x 7-1/2"D. $699.00. (1600357)

Zenith 6-D-616 Consol-Tone "Darth Vader" (1942) (Plastic tube table radio) This classic pre-war radio with its outstanding boomerang dial was designed by Robert Budlong who was Zenith's most prolific radio designer.

The radio has been electronically restored, all old caps have been replaced, upgraded to new longer lasting capacitors. All tubes have been checked on my tube checker and now the radio is working very well. It has an internal loop antenna for its good reception. 12"W x 8"H x 7"D. $289.00. (0021557)
-
Zenith 6-D-628 (1942) (Wood tube table radio) The 6-D-628 was manufactured in 1942 and was one of the last radios Zenith produced before the war. The "D" designation identified the set as AC/DC set operating at 110 volts. The AC/DC sets had no transformer, but the rectifier tube acted as a transformer with DC output and tapped for the dial lamps. This radio was the big brother of the 6-D-525, known in 1941 as the very popular "Toaster" model. The 6-D-628 is a six-tube, AM only set. It produces a lot of volume and picks up stations all across the dial utilizing the "wave magnet" internal loop antenna, which works quite well. Blake replaced all of the capacitors, he checked the resistors and tubes, replacing where needed. A new power cord and audio cable were added. Gary refinished the walnut Art Deco cabinet with his usual mastery, ending up with "piano" lacquer finish. The radio has the original brown knobs and speaker. We added a new period correct grille cloth, a new dial cover and a new reproduction back. This radio is seldom seen, possibly due to lower production numbers right before the war. Nice piece for the Zenith collector, and just a real beauty for any collection! 13"W x 7-1/2"H x 7"D. $499.00. (1600343)

Zenith 6-S-27 (1936) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Here is one of the very large and desired sets from Zenith Radio. The "black dial" when off, but once turned on the dial is dramatically lit with five different colors. The multi colored dial makes the radio a collector's favorite.

Zenith 6-S-229 Tombstone (1936) (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) You are looking at one of the iconic tombstones that made Zenith famous. The brightly lit 6-inch dial was the source of the "black dial" fame with fly wheel tuning. The radio is a five-tube super-het which receives both AM and Shortwave. The cabinet condition is original and showing a small measure amount of wear for the 85 years since it left the factory. I did a bit of touch up to the top due to a watermark. The cabinet is in otherwise quite nice and factory original condition. The speaker cloth is an accurate replacement and the radio is complete with the iconic wood "Z" knobs, all original. The radio is a tremendous player with great selectivity and sound quality.

Zenith 6-S-322 "Stars and Stripes" (1939)
(Wood tube table radio w/SW) 1939 was a year of change for Zenith. Their cabinet designs still had an Art Deco look, with some more modernistic changes. The Waltons were gone, but the Robot Dial chassis were carried over into new models. New and popular models such as the Racetrack, Stars and Stripes and Zephyrs appeared. The 6-S-322 is a six-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) radio. There were three or four table sets with the "Stars and Stripes" bezel, and I feel the model 322 was the nicest, and hardest to find. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. We added a safety fuse, audio input, new antenna lead and a new power cord. Steve completely stripped the Walnut and Mahogany cabinet. He highlighted the area around the bezel giving the radio a "two-toned" appearance. The radio ended up with a beautiful "piano" finish. The original knobs were missing, so we added a reproduction set from Renovated Radios. The chassis and speaker are original, and we installed a period-correct grille cloth. This radio is a fantastic performer across the dial. The model 322 is pretty rare and highly collectable. Make it yours today! 20"W x 11-1/2"H x 8-1/2"D. $899.00. (1600406) -
Zenith 6-S-528 (1941)
(Wood tube table radio w/SW) Here is a sweet six-tube Zenith that utilizes the same chassis as the model 6-S-527, but has ornate wraparound sides which really give it a unique appearance. The burled walnut veneer is book matched on ends as well as on top. The cabinet is a previous refinish but looks great with only a couple of very small touchups in inconspicuous places that actually blend with the burl. Recently restored electronically replacing all caps, weak tubes, resistors where needed and alignment. Plays great picking up all my locals and beyond using only the Zenith "wave magnet" internal antenna + there is a terminal for longer antenna for longer distance SW listening. One of the last of the pre-war radios, the Zenith 6S528 is very attractive and packed with features, including the latest innovation from Zenith, the "wave magnet" internal antenna, shortwave, and pushbutton tuning. The radio is playing clearly picking up all my local stations, and beyond. The knobs and push buttons are original, and the back is a perfect replacement from Retro-Tronics. The dial lamp really makes it pop at night. This would be a super addition to any collection! 15"W x 8-1/2"H x 8"D, shipped weight 20 pounds. $289.00. (1640206) -
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 705 (1934) (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. Several models were carried over to 1934, and the 700 series radios, called the "Challenger" series came out. The 705 is a six-tube, AM only, AC powered radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. We then checked the tubes and resistors, replacing where necessary. We installed a new power cord, audio cable and a new antenna lead. The radio has good sensitivity across the dial and plays with good tone and plenty of volume. Gary stripped the burl walnut and mahogany cabinet. He ended up with a beautiful "piano" lacquer finish.
