Airline 62-158 (1935) ON SALE! (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Montgomery Ward started advertising radios in their catalog in 1921, selling radios from other companies. They started using the Airline name in 1923, selling one- to three-tube radios made by a company called TRESCO. They had "Airline" with a lightning bolt through it and Montgomery Ward "adopted" Airline as it own brand name, and changed the look of the logo. The 62-158 is a seven-tube, two-band (SB,SW) radio that was manufactured by Wells-Gardner. The chassis was used in this model and a console version. It has plenty of volume, with great sensitivity across the unique dial. Wards was starting to use Art Deco design in their radios, and this one in particular hits a home run with its "skyscraper" design that defined the period. We went through the electronics replacing all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. We installed a new power cord, safety fuse, and an audio cable. Gary stripped and refinished the radio to a "factory fresh" look with a wonderful lacquer finish. The radio retains its original chassis, speaker and knobs. This is the second 62-158 for sale at the Radio Attic. A great addition to any collection! 17"H x 16"W x 11"D.Was $599.00, now $499.00.

Airline 62-329 (1937) (Wood tube table radio w/SW) I've mentioned this before: Montgomery Wards sold millions of products without manufacturing anything! Radios were no exception.

Airline 62-367 "Teledial" (1937) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) In the 1930's, radios were the cutting edge of new electronic innovation for consumers of that generation. Competition was fierce, so manufacturers were constantly improving the radios and adding features. The Teledial was a quick way to dial in your favorite stations without having to manually turn a dial and search. Most of them were set up much like a rotary dial on telephones, and made the tuning process much easier and faster. All the radio manufacturers at one time or another featured Teledials, soon replaced by electric selection and motorized dials. The 62-367 is a seven-tube, two-band (SB+SW) radio.

This is a five-tube, AM-only radio manufactured for Airline by Belmont. We went through this radio with our usual replacing of all capacitors with modern equivalents.

(0260856)
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.

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.

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.

American Bosch 565 (1935) ON SALE! (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW) Founded in 1886 in Germany, Robert Bosch built a plant in 1911 in Springfield, MA. By 1920 they had 3,000 workers manufacturing 50% of all the electrical parts for the automobile industry. During the war, Bosch magnetos were used in basically every ship and plane. Bosch products were made to a very high standard technically and aesthetically, and their radios were no exception. The 565 is a six-tube, three-band (AM,SW,police) AC/DC model. I could find no information on it. Every model 565 radio and schematic I looked at was an AC set. We think that this was a factory made set, possibly looking at putting an AC/DC version in production. I would be surprised to find another one...so we think this may have been a factory one-off. A very unique radio that was probably never put into production. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, antenna lead and safety fuse were installed. This radio had very good sensitivity and volume, picking up stations all across the multi-colored dial. Gary stripped this gorgeous cabinet and refinished it to a beautiful "piano" lacquer finish. The original knobs, speaker and chassis are with the set. A new crystal-clear dial cover was added.

Anritsu "Alpha A-100" (1946) (Wood tube table radio) Rare! This is a very hard to come by post war Japanese tube set. It was manufactured by the Anritsu Electric Co. LTD. in Tokyo Japan in 1946. It is a Kokumin-gata or National Radio as sanctioned by the Government of Japan. Most of the stickers and instructions are in Japanese as well as the schematic on the bottom. This is a four-tube TRF set and has been rebuilt per my shop specs. The radio is in very good condition. The original finish has mostly been retained. The wooden cabinet is a simple design. The veneers are intact but some slight checking is found. The chassis and speaker are in excellent condition. I have had this radio in my collection for many years, buying it directly from a collector in Japan.

Receives four local stations well and has a long wire antenna for added reception. The radio has a backlit dial and presents well. This radio works best at 100v but will also work on normal 120v. I would suggest a variac if you wish to play it for extended times. If you have any questions or need additional pictures don't hesitate to email me. Also, as with all of my radios, reasonable offers are always considered. This very desirable radio is 15-1/2"W x 9-3/4"H x 7"D and weighs in at 7lbs. 10oz. prior to packaging.

Aria 175 (1938) ON SALE! (Wood tube table radio w/SW) Aria was one of a hundred brands built by Detrola, and was sold in Wieboldt Department Stores of Chicago. Detrola also supplied Western Auto (Truetone) and Sears (Silvertone), just to name two, with thousands of radios. They were the most productive company in the USA, providing radios for department stores and small retailers. The chassis used in the Aria was used in other radios (Detrola 175E) and consoles under different sellers. The 175 is a eight-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) radio. It produces a ton of volume with push-pull audio through a rebuilt Rola eight-inch speaker. The radio features motorized tuning which functions perfectly.

All this will be carefully packed. I pack radios for you the way I want them packed for me. $695.00. (1860003)

Arvin 444 Chrome Midget (1946) (Metal tube table radio) Vintage 1946-1948 Rare Chrome Arvin Midget Model 444A tube radio, compact metal body. I have mostly Catalin radios in my collection, but this one really caught my eye when I saw it about 30 years ago here in Los Angeles. I don't know a lot about these radios, and I haven't seen a lot of the chrome versions. I've seen a few different colors of this model. It looks great on the shelf amongst the other radios and will surely look just as good at your place. I haven't tried plugging it in because the AC cord is frayed. Because we're not able to turn it on, this is being sold as is as a "non-working" vintage radio. $525.00. (1880006)

Contained within the factory original cabinet, which has retained a nice luster and displaying only a minimum of wear for the 83 years of service. The speaker cloth is replacement but period correct and the radio operate with four Bakelite knobs. The five-tube and sophisticated super-het chassis was and still delivers a fine level of service. My technician has completed his professional repairs and has returned the radio's performance to a "like new" performance. His work included a mini-jack for your direct connection to today’s modern devices so you can enjoy any content of your choosing. AM transmitter and Bluetooth options are available starting at $25!

Arvin 540T (1951) (Metal tube table radio) A little metal Arvin four-tube set. It is AM only and has a light beige painted case. There are a few paint spots on it and nicks but no bad scratches or chips. It has the original knobs and back. The cord was replaced with a new polarized one for safety (which is needed on these metal sets!). It needs a long wire antenna to work but is sensitive to just about any length added. It picks up local stations and depending on the antenna, can reach out further. I went through the chassis and replaced weak tubes, filters, and caps. It has been aligned as well. It has a nice sound through its 4-inch speaker. This little set would look nice on your desk at home or office. 8-1/4"W x 5-1/2"H x 4-1/4"D. $100.00. (1700075)
Arvin 618 "Phantom Maid" (1938)
