  • 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 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 25GSL-1814A (1952)    (Wood tube table radio)  This vintage Airline model is a bit unusual and rare, for I haven't seen this model before and I have been in the radio business for quite a long time. I have completely restored it, replacing all of the older paper and wax type capacitors with newer longer lasting ones. Also replaced the old style electrolytic capacitors which cause that hum that you hear in older radios when they go bad. All the tubes have been checked on my tester and I have replaced any of the bad ones with new, all circuits checked and working properly now and the radio sounds as nice as it looks. 10-3/4"W x 7"H x 7-3/4"D. $194.50.

  • 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) New! (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 62-256 (1937)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  The mail-order company was started in Chicago around 1872 by Aaron Montgomery Ward. They started selling radios in their catalog in 1921, but after lawsuits and patent issues, real Airline radio sales started in 1932. Wards never manufactured any radios, they were made by many other companies and sold under the Airline brand name. The company went out of business in 2001. The 62-256 is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) set. The capacitors were all replaced with new-world values. The resistors and tubes where checked and replaced where necessary. A new power cord, antenna lead and an audio input were installed. The Walnut cabinet was stripped and refinished using the best quality products. The final step was a lacquer "piano" finish. The original knobs, speaker and chassis are present. The grille cloth is "period correct" found in another radio. This radio has lots of volume and great tone, and the eye tube is bright and active. A really good-looking radio for your collection! 14"W x 9"H x 7"D. $549.00. (1600354)
  • Airline 62-316 (1935-36)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  You tend to think of Airline as low budget radios, but Chicago-based Belmont Radio Corporation built Montgomery Ward one heck of a nice radio in the 62-316. The waterfall cabinet is stylish and attractive. The radio is packed with features including broadcast and two short wave bands, a gear driven tuner with a vernier dial, brightly lit color coded dial, actual accurate tuning on all three bands, a separate RF amp for outstanding receiver sensitivity, and a fairly large, great sounding speaker. I gave it a nice slick finish with 14 coats of nitrocellulose lacquer. All new capacitors, resistors as necessary, and a full set of high testing tubes for long service life. A little veneer damage on the top where someone sat a drink on it, and a small nail crack in the lower right corner. The dial pointer is not original. All in all, a gorgeous, feature packed radio that you will be proud to own. 17-1/2"W x 9-1/2"H x 8-1/2"D. $375.00. (1680074)
  • 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 62-425 (1937)    (Wood tube table radio)  Airline "Indian" sold by Montgomery Wards in 1937. The five-tube chassis has been restored with new capacitors, checked resistors and tubes, and alignment. The cabinet has been refinished with period correct toners and a semi-gloss lacquer. There were a few blemishes to the cabinet which add to its character, and the original owner's name is still written on the bottom of the cabinet. Plays very well with a long wire antenna. 11"W x 7"H x 6"D. $225.00. (1550102)
  • 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 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 New! (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.

The radio inside is a superior quality seven-tube super-het chassis offering both AM and Shortwave. My technician has given it his professional repairs and updates to the radio and it sings like new.

He added a min-jack to allow you to connect to any modern device or add a Bluetooth adapter for only $25 additional! 16-3/8"W x 10"H x 8-1/2"D. $599.00. (0961519)

  • Airline GEN-1743A New! (Wood transistor table radio w/FM)  Here is a nice AM-AFC-FM solid state radio from Montgomery Ward in the 70's. It has a wood veneer case and chrome trim.

(0250125)
  • Airline GTM-1200A    (Plastic transistor portable radio w/SW)  Radio does work, just not very loud.

Radio has no cracks or chips or hairlines and antenna is straight. $50.00. (2430102)
  • Air Castle 14-136EA (1937)    (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 dial with is brightly backlit. The new green tuning eye winks with great sensitivity as you dial station to station. The cabinet is is a nice refinish, with a fine factory like luster. The work is excellent in a complete mirror of the way the factory detailed the set. The speaker cloth is an accurate reproduction and knobs appear to be factory original. The fine American walnut is dramatic in its pattern.

  • Air Castle 328? (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 is that the rear cover is clearly stamped "Model T502." I have not been able to find any reference to that model in any of the literature. In any case, it is a very sharp little radio. I refinished the cabinet in proper ivory color. The camera made it a bit lighter than it actually is. A few minor flaws in the otherwise perfect finish. 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. If this is an Air Castle, it is very rare. If it is something else, it is even more rare. If rare is your thing, this is your radio. 10"W x 6-1/4"H x 5"D. $149.00. (1680078)
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Arvin 40 "Mighty Mite" (1938) SOLD!    (Metal tube table radio)  This is the lowest tube count radio that Arvin made and is rather hard to find. It is AM only and only has two tubes! It has a small metal case that is painted ivory and shows some nicks in the paint here and there. It has the original knobs, metal back and antenna hank. I went through this set and replaced all the caps, the cord plug for safety and aligned it. It works with the antenna hank but could use some additional long wire. It picks up local stations with good volume. The coffee cup is not for sale but gives a good idea of the radio's size. This would make a nice addition to your Arvin metal radio collection or just play it at home or office. 6"W x 5"H x 4"D. $175.00. (1700070)
  • Arvin 58-A (1939)    (Bakelite tube table radio)  Here's an interesting early Bakelite set for your consideration. It uses a ballast tube. The dial pointer moves in the opposite direction of knob rotation, and the dial scale lights up very nicely. The cabinet design is bulbous and attractively machine age-y. It's been re-capped, tubes checked, lubricated, and cleaned. The Bakelite cabinet has no cracks or chips. It has the original ivory paint job and, as you can see, that has accumulated quite a number of little flaws over the years. It displays very nicely as-is, but I leave it to the new owner to decide if they wish to strip and re-paint the cabinet or leave it with its historical character marks. Please note that the ballast tube gets very hot, so please be sure not to play this radio near curtains, pets, or small children with inquisitive hands. $95.00. (1560035)
  • Arvin 518WD "Phantom Pal" (1938)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Here is a nicely restored, painted (Ivory & Mahogany) wood table radio from the Arvin Phantom series. It is a five-tube AM/SW radio that has a tone control and a band switch. The "Phantom" dial lights up in red, yellow and green when turned on and you can read the numbers to tune in a station. It has been restored electronically and the cord replaced for safety. It has a nice sound and will pick up many stations if you attach it to a long wire antenna. 9"H x 8-1/2"W x 7"D. $224.99. (1700010)
  • Arvin 544 (1946)    (Bakelite tube table radio)  What a beaut! This popular little set is unusual in that the dial and knobs are on the left-hand side; almost all side-by-side sets of this type are opposite. All-American Five chassis, AM only. It's been re-capped, cleaned, lubed, and aligned, Bakelite case cleaned and polished. The power cord was supple enough to stay original. The dial window has a couple of warps in the upper right corner and there's one small scratch and scuff on the left back of the cabinet, but no cracks, chips, or other major flaws. Like all my sets, this will be well-packed and protected for its journey to its new home. About 9"W x 6"H x 5"D. $125.00. (1560054)
  • Arvin 547A "Lefty" (1948)    (Bakelite tube table radio)  This is a seldom seen Deco-style radio that usually comes with brown knobs. But these rare ivory knobs are original to this set according to Sams Photofact set 42 folder 3, published in July 1948 (included with purchase). Its Bakelite cabinet is in perfect mint condition and has a deep chocolate swirl finish that retains its original beautiful shine. Its gold foil dial is in perfect condition and lights up beautifully in the dark. It even comes complete with the original cardboard backing. It was restored by its previous owner and plays great across the dial. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. About 9"W x 6-1/2"H x 6"D. $427.00. (1750034)
  • Arvin 618 "Phantom Junior" (1937)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Here is a collector favorite and it will be yours too! The radio is a very fine radio with six tubes and a new tuning eye which winks as you dial from station to station. The radio is an advanced super-het offering fine selectivity. The cabinet is in factory original condition along with the factory speaker cloth and unique wood knobs. The condition is outstanding considering the age and you can see the dramatic use of contrasting veneers offering a dramatic look. My technician has completed his professional repairs and the radio plays like new. Adding a bright and super sensitive green tuning eye makes the radio all the more interesting. These are fine receivers and will offer you a superior service. My tech added an mini-jack to allow your connection to any modern device. So enjoy the AM/shortwave content or add your own via the auxiliary jack. Bluetooth is available for only $25 additional! 14-1/2"W x 10"H x 9-1/2"D. $695.00. (0961603)
  • Arvin 651T (1953)    (Bakelite tube table radio)  This Bakelite 1953 Arvin was originally white but has been repainted with a black automotive-grade urethane. The five-tube chassis has had all electrolytic and wax capacitors replaced, tubes and resistors checked and alignment peaked. Instead of a lighted dial, this model has a lighted halo on the dial pointer. Plays well with its internal loop antenna. 12"W x 7"H x 6"D. $175.00. (1550127)
  • Arvin 950-T2 (1955)    (Bakelite tube table radio)  Beautiful jet black Bakelite AM radio from 1955. Cabinet is in very good condition with a nice sound across the entire dial. Original back with tube layout in perfect condition. 10"W x 6"H x 5-1/2"D. $70.00. (0390226)
  • Arvin 950T (1955)    (Bakelite tube table radio)  Sharp angular Eames era cabinet is without cracks/chips! Though this glossy Bakelite cabinet appears jet black under all but the most intense direct light, it is actually a dark chocolate brown with subtle black swirling. The unpainted tan control knobs are excellent. The gold patterned foil center of the tuning dial is perfect! The station numerals & distinctive Arvin logo are crisp & complete! They sit nicely on a checkerboard cutout grille. The five tube AM only chassis plays well. Comes with the original Masonite back in great condition. 10"W x 6"H x 5"D. Very cool!! $275.00. (0250149)
  • Arvin 2581 (1958)    (Plastic tube table radio)  Here is a very desirable radio in an extremely rare "Flame" color from the late 50's manufactured by the Arvin Noblitt-Sparks company. The cabinet is original factory molded (not painted) Polystyrene plastic color. As with most of these these sets, there is small (3/4") hairline crack on top from the back edge (see photos). The chassis has been totally restored with any necessary tubes and electrolytics replaced so it is picking up all my local stations loud and clear across the AM dial. Ready to display and play! Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. About 9"W x 5-1/2"H x 4"D. $575.00. (1750103)
  • Arvin 6640 (1948)    (Wood tube table radio)  1939 saw a Ginger Rogers movie "Bachelor Mother" where a baby is left on an orphanage doorstep. This very original and beautiful Walnut Arvin is not remotely related, but somehow similar. I think someone five to ten years after that movie put a radio on Arvin's Columbus, Indiana doorstep and nobody could figure out where it came from? Could be 1946, 47 or, maybe 1948? Hard to pin down exactly when Arvin accepted manufacturing responsibility. Today it looks and plays like it did coming off the production line...whenever it was! Electronically reconditioned with new paper and electrolytic capacitors and out of tolerance resistors have been replaced. There is an external antenna for greater sensitivity. The six tubes are in good shape. A Jim Dennis Scale of Beauty 10+ "Ginger Rogers" Special! If you'd like additional pictures please let me know. 12"W x 8"H x 7"D. $285.00. (0510626)
  • Arvin 517 "Rhythm Junior"    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  You are looking at an uncommon model from the Rhythm series. This model is a five-tube model which plays on both AM and shortwave. One of the unique features is the speaker in mounted in the top of the radio which creates a 360 degree dispersion of the sound. Note the brightly lit and multicolored dial. I had a challenge with the first photo as the dial is oversized and you might discern some reflection in the picture. The cabinet looks to be a terrifically done refinish by a previous owner, with replacement speaker cloth and the uniquely original crafted wood knobs. The radio has been completely restored by my professional tech and the radio sings. One feature added to this radio is a two step tone control allowing a measure to tailoring the sound quality to your personal tastes. This radio is a great player and a fancy cabinet sure to delight. A mini-jack has been added to the set, for your ability to connect your modern device to enjoy content of your choice. Add Bluetooth for only $25! 14-1/2"H x 13"W x 11-1/2"D. $795.00. (0961685)
  • Astrex SP-100-WD-1 Stereo Turntable Set (~1980)    (Plastic phonograph)  A nice all-in-one solid state stereo two-speed (33 and 45 rpm) turntable with a pair of matching speakers and separate right and left volume control. The whole system is compact and surprisingly light but sounds quite good for what it is--certainly better than the new cheap turntable sets out there that use famous names. This system has been checked out by a professional turntable tech and has a new needle. The smoke-gray top is intact. Overall in excellent shape with minor scuffs to the plastic here and there. One handy feature is the unused portion of the speaker cable stores neatly inside the speaker cabinets, which also include holes for hanging on a wall. Includes a 45 adapter. An excellent second turntable for an office, or start a young person out in the wonderful world of vinyl! Like everything I sell, this will be well-packed and shipped in a correctly-sized box. Turntable base is 14"W x 9"D x 6"H, speakers 11-1/2"H x 7"W x 4-1/2"D, weight of whole system about 7-1/2 lbs. $95.00. (1560051)

  • Atwater Kent 10A-4550 (1924) ON SALE!    (Wood breadboard radio)  The AK 10A was produced in 1924 and offered in brown or black as model 4560. This is an extremely nice original example. The board retains the original finish with the model tag, but missing the warranty tag. The Bakelite is in excellent condition with no cracks or chips. There is some stain discoloration to the one coil. The brass has a beautiful patina with no corrosion. All the 01A tubes have tested good. Otherwise the set has not been serviced and is sold untested. In a class of their own these early AK radios are a great piece of radio history.Was $1,199.00, now $999.00. (0260772)
  • Atwater Kent 10C-4700 ON SALE!    (Wood breadboard radio)  The iconic AK breadboards were among the first radios to be collected and preserved. This model 10C saw some restoration at some point in the past. The board was refinished and well done. It is missing some trim grommets. The wires that pass through the board to the detector are missing the brass eyelets that mount in the board. 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. Overall this is a nice clean example that displays beautifully. All the O1A tubes test good. It has not been electrically serviced and is sold untested.Was $799.00, now $699.00. (0260773)
  • Atwater Kent 80 (1931) ON SALE!    (Wood tube cathedral radio)  Atwater Kent cathedrals are among the most attractive and sought-after radios ever made. The cabinet design is impressive, with its twisting carved pilasters supporting an arch with diagonal grained Zebrawood veneer. There are two imperfections on this particular one -- missing circular wood ornaments at the tops of the left and right pilasters, and the dial is a bit faded on the right side. These shortcomings have been taken into account in the price, so if you can overlook them, you can get a real bargain on this model. The six-tube superheterodyne chassis has good sensitivity and selectivity, but like most radios before 1932, it has no AVC. Radios without AVC have a different feel and sound character, and it's a nice experience to see how these earlier radios operated. As with all radios I sell, the chassis has had a full electrical restoration and works as good as new. All paper and electrolytic capacitors have been replaced, as well as most of the resistors. A full RF/IF alignment has been done, and it has a new vintage-style power cord (with original plug). A fuse has been added for improved safety. This radio has a lighted dial and a tone control. 19"H x 16"W x 10"D.Was $575.00, now $395.00. (1310130)
  • Atwater Kent 80 Cathedral    (Wood tube cathedral radio)  A beautiful radio. Received several stations when I tested at 90V reduced voltage. Electrically repaired (not restored) by someone else. Solid cabinet appears professionally refinished. Only negative: narrow stress cracks in veneer side & top. Knobs original. Grille cloth looks original; speaker excellent. I hate to part with this beauty but I need fewer radios! $575.00. (1220012)
  • Atwater Kent 84 Cathedral (1931)    (Wood tube cathedral radio)  Atwater Kent cathedral radios are universally admired for their superior components, high performance and beautiful cabinets. Despite its premium price emerging from the Great Depression, these sets were popular with affluent buyers who wanted the best radio money could buy. This set has a completely original cabinet that's in great condition but shows the usual finish loss expected after almost 90 years. I would never recommend a cabinet restoration on such a nice survivor. The chassis has been freshly restored by a highly regarded technician and plays remarkably well. Your grandchildren will be enjoying this radio long into the future! This set weighs 32 pounds; 19-1/2"H x 15-1/2"W x 10"D. $375.00. (1340185)

  • Atwater Kent 145 Tombstone (1935)    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  In the history of antique radio makers, few had the reputation of Atwater Kent. From the 1920's until 1936 they were considered to be a top of the line radio manufacturer. The radio is a terrific model with a sophisticated six-tube super-het chassis. One of the interesting elements of the radio is the dual tuning abilities with macro- micro tuning controls. This feature was only available on the finest radios of the era. The cabinet is a fine refinish, with a dramatic hand laid inlays embellishing the front of the cabinet. Added to the fine book matched American Walnut veneers, the radio is a stand out. The speaker cloth is original, the knobs also factory installed originals. My technician has updated the radio to a like new operational quality. He has replaced the defective and aged electronic components along with the rubber parts to assure you of many years of problem free listening pleasure. The radio has also had our mini-jack installed to allow you to connect the set to any modern type of device. This will allow you to listen to an unlimited amount of content of your own choosing. Add a Blietooth device for only $25 additional!! 15-1/4"H x 13"W x 9-1/2"D. $695.00. (0961654)
  • Atwater Kent 185 (1934) SOLD!    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  If Art Deco is your thing, here is what you've been waiting for. Atwater Kent went whole hog, mad dog Art Deco on this very striking model 185 from 1934. Easily one of the more unique and eye-catching radios I have ever seen. The black trimmed cabinet is faced with beautiful bias cut veneers, and accentuated with brass and aluminum inlays. Due to its design, the cabinet on this radio was extremely difficult to refinish. While not absolutely perfect, I think it is a stunning example of this model. It has a large 8-inch speaker, a good set of tubes, all new capacitors, resistors as necessary, almost all new wiring and a full alignment. The dial is a reproduction. Broadcast and short wave. This radio is very heavy, so will be a little expensive to ship, but I'm pretty sure once you get your hands on it you won't mind. It is just a downright spectacular radio. 15"H x 13"W x 8"D. $499.00. (1680037)
  • Atwater Kent 206 Tombstone (1934)    (Wood tube tombstone radio)  This model is considered to be a classic! This is another uniquely shaped set, with very detailed ornate carvings. This radio is a particularly nice example with a fine professionally refinished cabinet. The veneer is fine and the finish is like new with few signs of use. The speaker cloth is a period correct reproduction and the set retains the factory installed wood knobs. The radio is a six-tube model with broadcast and shortwave capabilities. One interesting feature is the tuning offers dual controls, as the set offers macro tuning and very sophisticated fine tuning. My tech has done a first class repair replacing all of the aged rubber coated wire with brand new and safe wire. This example has the cleanest chassis you will ever see. The tuner has been aligned, and the new power cord and plug ensure your safe operation. My tech has added a mini-jack for your other devices which offer a tremendous number of content options. Bluetooth is available for $25. Impressive at 19-1/2"H x 14"W x 10"D. $895.00. (0961666)
  • Atwater Kent 246 (1932) ON SALE!    (Wood tube cathedral radio)  Here's one for those of you who prefer cabinets in original condition. There is a little veneer missing from the grille scrollwork, but otherwise no major issues. Grille cloth, knobs, escutcheon, and nameplate are all original. The chassis, like every radio I sell, has been restored to like-new condition, with all capacitors replaced, new resistors where needed, a strong set of tubes, and a full RF/IF alignment. A fuse has been added for improved safety and the cord has been replaced with a vintage-style cloth-covered cord, keeping the original round plug. The original 8-inch speaker is in perfect condition. This radio performs beautifully, and has AVC (one of the first, being a 1932 model) for good sound and familiar operation. Lighted dial. My "Better Bluetooth" is available. 16"W x 12"H x 10-1/4"D.Was $345.00, now $245.00. (1310127)
  • Atwater Kent 275 (1934) SOLD!    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  This very attractive Atwater Kent Model 275 puts the "period" behind the term "Art Deco." Even more rare than its big brother the 185 (one listed on my site!), none of this model has ever sold on Radio Attic. The cabinet restoration was done by a previous owner. Not as slick as my work, but very nicely done. A few minor dings and one blemish by the band switch knob are all that mar the otherwise very nice cabinet. There is a small crack in one knob, and I had to make the chassis top and the back cover. Broadcast and shortwave 1.6 to 3 MHz, but for some reason AK didn't put the shortwave band on the dial. A good set of tubes, all new caps, resistors as necessary and a full alignment. A very difficult restoration as I had to replace almost all of the wiring. I stuffed the filter box with new capacitors. The photo booth made the sides a little lighter than they actually are. If you are an Atwater Kent collector, you need this radio! I'll make you a package deal on both radios. 12"W x 8-1/2"H x 6"D. $350.00. (1680071)
  • Atwater Kent 356 (1935)    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  Here is a dramatic example of a highly sought model. The cabinet is a work of art, further highlighted by the professional refinish. The cabinet fellow applied a super high gloss finish to this set, remarkable in the depth and clarity. If you notice a few irregularities, it is the result of reflections. The radio is a fine high quality five-tube super-het that offers fine service on both AM and shortwave. My professional tech has given this radio special attention and the result is spectacular! He has added a mini-jack to the radio allowing you to connect the set to any modern device. Now you have a way to listen to any content of your choice. Bluetooth is available for only $25! 19"H x 13-7/8"W x 10"D. $995.00. (0961672)
  • Atwater Kent 545 Tombstone (1935)    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  This quite a stunning radio! The product of the famed Philadelphia, PA factory and one of the last models ever produced from that factory. The radio is an advanced five-tube model offering both AM and shortwave reception from the most advanced super-het circuitry of the times. The cabinet is stunning with all of the craftsmanship the company was known for, refinished professionally and with great care. The speaker cloth is an exact reproduction and the knobs the same as installed at the factory. My technician has given the radio a complete repair, replacing all of the aged rubber wire and returning the set to perfect operations…like new! His work included adding an mini-jack to allow your connection of the radio to any modern device and listening to anything of your choice. Add a Bluetooth device for only $25 additional! 17"H x 13"W x 7-1/2"D. $695.00. (0961643)
  • Atwater Kent 725 (1936) New! (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  Atwater Kent started producing high-quality radios in Philadelphia in 1922. Between 1923 and 1927, they produced 1.3 million radios, making them the leading radio manufacturer in America. Due to problems with the unions and the depression, he closed the factory in 1936. Model 725 is a five-tube, two-band (SB,SW) set. The 725 has separate lights for each band, and the dial pointer is illuminated when the radio is turned on. All of the capacitors were replaced with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. A new power cord, safety fuse and external audio cable were installed. The cabinet was stripped and refinished with a nice satin finish. The original knobs and grille cloth are with the set. The speaker was re-coned and a new dial cover from Mark Palmquist was installed. This is a really nice sounding Atwater Kent, and will definitely grace anyone's collection! 17"H x 13"W x 8"D. $599.00. (1600371)
  • Atwater Kent 856 (1935)    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  This radio was made in 1935 and Atwater Kent stopped production in 1936. Thus, this being one of the last production models, they brought all the advanced elements of their famed history into the manufacture of this model. Note the the lit dial indicators with tiny lights. Added to the dial configuration is a micro tuning employing the "watch dial" which is a dial in a dial for fine tuning purposes. The Atwater Kent 856 is a seven-tube, three-band radio. The dial light changes as you change bands, a cool feature. My tech remarked of the high quality of reception and his professional repair has returned the radio to a like new factory performance. This radio is original with period correct replacement speaker cloth. The finish is terrific, and the knobs original to the radio. Added to the electronics in a mini-jack to allow your connection to any modern type of device. So, you can use your phone or other device to input any content in addition to the factory construction.

  • Audiotronics 222 ON SALE!    (Cloth/leather tube table radio)  The company made audio equipment for school and based in North Hollywood CA. This radio probably dates from the mid 1950's. There was a black stripe on the left side that most likely covered what class or department it belonged to. I was able to cover it fairly well with a matching color. Otherwise over all it's in excellent original condition. The indicator light comes on and the set plays really well, so I'm offering it as found unrestored. 13"W x 7-1/2"H x 6-1/2"D.Was $99.00, now $69.00. (0260707)

  • 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 526 "Freshman" (1938)    (Bakelite tube table radio)  Just restored! This 82-year old "toaster-style" radio is one of those rare and collectible finds that would have to be new in the box to be nicer. The black Bakelite cabinet still retains its original high gloss shine, and it's in perfect shape with no cracks, hairlines or chips. The grille cloth, knobs, pre-set levers and complete bottom label are all original and also cosmetically perfect. The pre-sets levers are in fine working order as well. The only imperfections I can find are a light fading of "ESH" in the "FRESHMAN" dial and the missing call letters above each pre-set lever. However, I will include five station tabs for you to add to the cabinet, but not necessarily those which match radio stations in your area past or present. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. About 10"W x 7-1/2"H x 6"D. $515.00. (1750065)

  • 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)

  • Bulova 2YC-23 (1959)    (Plastic transistor portable radio w/SW)  The very first radio I bought was one nearly identical (different SW band) to this seven-transistor Bulova; that was in 1959.

  • Climax "Cunningham" (1936)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Here is a bit of an oddity. The famed Chicago factory created a modest sized table radio with the design associated with a console radio. The radio is a tremendously impressive radio, with a brightly lit "porthole" dial and with all of the decorative elements of an oddly styled console radio in miniature. The radio is a fine five-tube super-het chassis and plays on both AM and shortwave. The radio cabinet has been professionally refinished with period correct replacement speaker cloth. The condition is simply stunning. My tech has professionally repaired the radio to a "like new" condition with all of the 84+year old parts and tubes either replaced of checked for perfection. The radio has been fitted with our mini-jack to allow your connection to the radio of any modern type of device. So enjoy the radio as created or as a fine remote player to the new electronics. Bluetooth is available for only $25 additional! 12"W x 9"H x 6"D. $695.00. (0961602)
  • 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)
  • Climax UE-64 (1938)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  You are viewing an extremely scarce radio! Clearly, this factory made some of the most edgy and futuristic cabinets in the late 1930's. I had only seen photos of this radio in my fifty years of collecting and am thrilled to finally see one at long last. The radio is a seven-tube super-het chassis offering both AM and shortwave reception. I had the cabinet professionally refinished as this is a highly collectable model and to own one, is to want it in the most stunning way. My tech with three FCC licenses has completely updated the electronics and it plays as new. His work was painstaking and the radio is quite a fine player. Note the radio retains the factory back, and the tech added a mini-jack to the radio for your connection to any modern device. You can enjoy the radio as it was designed of as a player from your phone, tablet or computer. Bluetooth is available for $25 additional! 18"W x 9-1/4"H x 9"D. $1,295.00. (0961640)
  • Clinton 145 (1936)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Here is a never seen model from the famous Chicago based Clinton Radio. The company was known for fantastic radios and the ones from their Plant A known as the "skunk works" are few and far between. The Plant A production was deemed experimental and employed advanced radio techniques for later adoption for the products more mass manufactured. This particular set is difficult to find on line or in the books, as it was designed and made in tiny numbers. The looks of the cabinet were futuristic for the era, and the brightly lit multi colored dial with a foil background only added to the sophisticated good looks. The radio is in factory condition with a nice finish, original speaker cloth and knobs. The radio also retains the full factory back, which is often missing. This model is a six-tube super-het chassis and it is a dramatic player. My tech has given his professional best in the restoration of the 85 year old electronics with impressive results. His addition of a mini-jack will allow your connection to any modern type of device and you can play anything you wish through the radio. Bluetooth is available for only $25 additional! $495.00.

  • 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 chassis which is a high quality and eight-tube super-het dates from the middle 1930's. The cabinet is like dated with the craze of skyscraper shaped radio which coincided with the 1934-35 World's Fairs in Chicago. The radio is simply huge and impressively modified in the late 1930's with a popular tuning eye kit. So you have a nine tube model with a sensitive eye tube winking from the eight tube chassis. The dramatically sized cabinet, looks to have been refinished at some early point in time, with reproduction speaker cloth also period correct. The fancy saucer shaped wood knobs are originals. My technician marveled at the fine qualities of the chassis as he professionally made his repairs. His work included adding a mini-jack for your ability to connect the powerhouse to any modern type of device.

  • Crosley 154 Mini Cathedral (1933) New! (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 637 "Super 6" (1938)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  For the 1938 model year, Crosley produced three great sellers for the company: the "Fiver," "Super 6," and the "Super 8." The number designating the tube count of each radio and its variations. The Super 6 and the Super 8 were unique in that they both had a "push-pull" audio stage with matching power tubes, using a six-inch and eight-inch speaker respectively. These radios produced a lot of volume, almost console-like for a table radio. The 617 is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. The capacitors were all replaced with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse, antenna lead and audio input were installed. The radio has tons of volume and great sensitivity across the dial. The cabinet was stripped, grain-filled and painted. A gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish was applied. The original knobs, speaker, doublet, installation tags and owners manual are included. This beautiful, strong performing Crosley is ready for your collection! 14"W x 9"H x 7"D. $649.00. (1600353)
  • Crosley 718 (1939) New! (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Here is a great looking & playing pre-war Crosley from my personal collection.

It is a seven-tuber counting the very bright green tuning eye that shows thru the multi-colored (red, green, & white) dial. Very clear graphics which include the station call letters of the day. Simply beautiful dial. It maintains original speaker, knobs, dial, Bakelite escutcheon and push buttons which also work properly. The Bakelite escutcheon is perfect with no shrinkage, cracks, repairs, etc. It even has some white swirling thru it as it surrounds both the dial & pushbuttons. The cabinet design gives a hint of Ingraham with its wraparound fluted right end (grille area for diagonally mounted speaker) & then dipping into a beautiful burled walnut front. The top is also book matched burl walnut in great condition. The trim areas were toned giving the cabinet an even more proper, Deco, cooler look.

  • Crosley 817 "Super Eight" (1937) New! (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  The Crosley 817, or "Super 8," called that because of the eight-tube configuration and 8-inch speaker. It still has its original finish except possibly the top which looks perfect tho I suspect it has been refinished. Beautiful walnut veneers & maple inlay plus toned bands of trim from factory. It also presents all original knobs, speaker, dial, possibly grille cloth. This eight-tube set is a strong player picking up all my locals stations & beyond. SW also working, tho better in evenings for my locale and most areas as SW stations are fewer these days. This is one of my favorite radios, combining a beautiful, brass-accented walnut cabinet with brass bands running thru grille area and escutcheon, a perfect "mirror glass" dial. The factory paper schemaic is intact inside the back. It is an older restore, but I did check all the tubes (replaced two which were marginal with stronger ones), cleaned / lubed controls, etc. The chassis is as clean as you will find and rust free.

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.

  • 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)

I know "rare" is often misused but, this model 209EA is rare. Beautiful large multi-colored & lighted dial gives it pizazz! The bright green tuning eye works perfectly & as designed. I have scores of radio books that help me identify all types of radios. This set is in none of them. I could find nothing on the internet after looking for over an hour, but did find a pic in one magazine with nothing but model number & year. This eight-tube set was restored just over a year ago and is a strong player and even picks up SW with the attached antenna (evening hours of course). In all, a rare find. Detrola was started in 1930 in Detroit & at one time it was the 6th largest radio manufacturer in the world & most of the radios didn't even carry the Detrola name; had separate lines dedicated to names like Truetone, etc. 22"W x 13"H x 9-1/2"D. $539.00. (1640166)
  • Detrola 571 (1946)    (Wood tube table radio)  Nice wood cabinet has some checkering. Replaced bad tubes and replaced all old wax capacitors and aligned. Has built in antenna also has headphone jack. $79.00. (1370111)
  • Detrola 7241 (1939)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Here is a terrific radio. It was made by Detroit Radio. This factory was a very good one and they made radios under the Truetone and Airline labels and their own trade name "Detrola." This radio offers dramatic qualities as it is a fine eight-tube super-het chassis, with a brand new super sensitive green tuning eye. Additionally, it has eight preset buttons with a motor drive allowing the presetting of one's favorite stations. One feature I really appreciate is the tone control and with a full range Rola speaker and full size cabinet, it is a dramatic player. The cabinet is a nicely refinished one, with the factory installed speaker cloth and Bakelite knobs. My tech has given this radio his best professional efforts, completely cleaning the motor drive while fully completely returning the electronics to factory like quality. His work included adding a mini-jack for your connection to any modern device and allowing you to be able to choose any kind of content. Bluetooth is available for $25 additional! 21-1/2"W x 12"H x 9-1/4"D. $995.00. (0961566)
  • Detrola Tombstone (model unknown, 1933) ON SALE!    (Wood tube tombstone radio)  This rare unknown model was offered in two-, three-, and four-knob variations.

The chassis has been serviced and the set plays well. 13-1/2"H x 10"W x 7"D.Was $359.00, now $299.00. (0260753)
  • DeWald 537 (1939)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  David Wald started the Pierce Airo Radio Manufacturing Corporation in New York City around 1921. The name changed to DeWald around 1930. DeWald is recognized for having several collectable Catalin radio models. The 537 is a six-tube, two-band (SB,SW) AC/DC radio. The radio chassis was restored by the previous owner, and meets the requirements for our guarantee. The capacitors were all replaced with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. We installed a new power cord, audio cable and antenna lead. The cabinet is solid walnut with no veneers and was refinished by Gary Marvin to a nice semi-gloss finish. The knobs, chassis, speaker and dial scale are original. Gary added a new, crystal clear dial cover. The radio is pretty rare and is making a first appearance on the Radio Attic. A nice radio with a great price for your collection. 10"W x 6"H x 5"D. $299.00. (1600299)

  • Echoes of the World (no model number, 1936) New! SOLD!    (Wood tube table radio)  A truly unique, one of a kind radio that more than likely is the only one ever produced! This five-tube set has no model or chassis number. The style of tubes would date it to around 1936. The dial face, which is beige in color yet lights up green, says "Echoes of The World," which was a later slogan used by Echophone Radios. There are scales for three bands, yet this set is AM only! The cabinet was made by Spencer-Cardinal of Marion, Indiana. The typed label from them inside the cabinet says "Sample #39-45," meaning this cabinet was a proposed sample that may never have gone into production! In fact it may be the only cabinet like it ever made! It is my belief that this set was a prototype to be considered for production, but never got to that stage. The chassis has been completely cleaned & gone through with all new capacitors, new volume control & off/on switch, good set of tubes that tested strong, & a new line cord. It plays strong across the dial with just the attached wire antenna. The grille cloth & wood knobs are original. The cabinet was completely refinished using spray toners. 12"W x 8-1/4"H x 7"D. $219.00. (1790039)
  • Edison Radio SOLD!    (Wood tube table radio)  The volume escutcheon reads Edison Radio Stores Inc. NY.

  • 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 38 w/Ingraham Cabinet (1935)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Here is a beautiful, all original Emerson that maintains its original factory piano-like finish in walnut cabinet. Original grille cloth, knobs, dial, and even original wooden back which is almost never present on these little gems. I see no Ingraham tag, but it definitely has the Ingraham influence as you can tell by its roly-poly waterfall top and intricate grille cut-outs as well as contoured sides with ornate trim pieces that match the bottom trim. This is just one of the nicest you will ever see and ready for play or display. This is a nice performing radio; it has been fully restored. The Emerson model 38 was advertised in 1935 as a dual wave AC-DC Superheterodyne set with a "Duo-Lite Band Switching circuit." And touted as "One of the leaders in the line of The Worlds Biggest Selling Little Radios." Recent restore playing as it should. It is a six-tube, two-band set.

  • Emerson 45 (1935) New! (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  Emerson started up in 1915 manufacturing phonographs and producing records in New York City.

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 148 w/Ingraham Cabinet (1937)    (Wood tube table radio)  The chassis is rebuilt with capacitors, new dial lens and RCA jack added for playing your favorite audio source.

  • 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)

  • Emerson 400 "Aristocrat" (1940) ON SALE!    (Catalin tube table radio)  Here is an extremely nice Catalin with a very dynamic design by Emerson (Norman Bel Geddes Design). Called Aristocrat, they were Patriot related, of course. No breaks, repairs, or major scratches which makes it even more stunning (sorry for some glares). These were made in several color combos & tho not as flashy as some color combinations this is one of the more difficult colors to find. Beautiful high glossy, greenish brown with heavy butterscotch swirls case with original black handle, grille, and knobs. All original except the repro back which is one of the nicest I have ever seen and includes all the correct print and graphics. Lighted clear dial (also appears original).

  • Emerson 414 Repwood "Fleur-de-Lis" (1933)    (Wood tube table radio)  Ornate repwood model also called the "Wheat" radio. Everything is original including the back with the Emerson metal plate. It is in very good condition. This has the same chassis as the Mickey Model 411. The radio hums when plugged in so it needs repair but it displays beautifully. $475.00. (0710069)
  • Emerson 414 "Wheat" (1933) New! (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 870-B (1957) New! SOLD!    (Plastic tube table radio)  In the 1950's, the "Jet Age" was upon us. Everything exemplified the style of jet aircraft and radios were no exemption. Sharp angles, wing shapes and bright colors were the order of the day. Gone were radios made of wood and Bakelite, replaced with new, hard plastics like Styrene, Lucite and Plaskon. The 870-B is a five-tube, AM only AC/DC radio. Thousands of the "AA5" (All-American five) radios were being manufactured, and so affordable, everyone could have them. All of the capacitors were replaced with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. The radio was aligned and plays perfectly, utilizing an internal loop antenna. This model was offered in several colors, with this pink and black combination the only one I've ever seen. the original knob and back are with the radio, just a really nice period-piece from the "Jet Age!" 8"W x 5"H x 5"D. $249.00.

  • Emerson 977 Falcon    (Plastic transistor portable radio)  Radio just picks up static.

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-176 (1938)    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  Emerson started radio production in New York in 1924. Operating in relative obscurity until 1932, they produced the "Pee-Wee" radio. By 1938 they had sold over a million "Pee-Wee" radios. They were the biggest user of Ingraham cabinets, which have great designs using curves and angles with beautiful veneer. The AR-176 is a six-tube, two-band (SB,SW) set. They came in many varieties: push-pull audio, single output audio, teledial chassis, and farm set. This version offers push-pull audio utilizing two 41 output tubes. It's an excellent performer with tons of audio, nice tone and great sensitivity across the dial. We replaced all of the capacitors, resistors and tubes checked and replaced where needed. A safety fuse, audio input, antenna lead and a new power cable have been added. Gary Marvin refinished the unique "slant-faced" cabinet with the finest grain fillers, paint and lacquer. It has its original Ingraham cabinet badge, and retains the original knobs, grille cloth and decals. A crystal-clear dial cover from Mark Palmquist was installed. This radio is one gorgeous, a perfect example of an AR-176. 17"H x 12-1/2"W x 10-1/2"D. $849.00. (1600346)

The case was made by the Ingraham Cabinet Company of Bristol CT, who developed an outstanding capability for making beautiful cabinets in complex shapes, describing the process as "Stay-Bent" construction. This case has beautiful burled walnut veneer with two inlay red stripes across the lower front and sides of the cabinet and has been professionally refinished in toning lacquers. The chassis has been completely checked and everything needing updated was done. It plays very clearly picking up all my local AM stations with a short antenna line extended. The original plunger switch to turn the radio on now works from the volume knob. The purchase price of the radio in 1938 was $24.95, equivalent to about $500 in today's dollars. There is a perfect replacement back on the bottom of the set, and it has its original knobs and Ingraham tag on the bottom. Midget sized at 10"W x 5-1/2"H x 5-1/2"D. $319.00. (1150845)
  • Emerson BL210 (1939)    (Wood tube table radio)  Before I started the restoration on this very attractive Emerson BL 210 table radio, I thought of pinstripes as something that you found on cars. Apparently the folks at Ingraham decided to add a little touch of automotive class to the stylish cabinet they built for this little gem manufactured by Emerson in 1939. Saving the original pinstripes was a tricky business, but the cabinet came out very nice, with a gorgeous slick finish having only a few minor flaws. The back was badly stained so I gave it a coat of brown paint. A new dial glass, a full set of high testing tubes, all new capacitors and resistors as necessary. A full alignment produced a great playing little radio with surprisingly good sound from the perfect speaker. Broadcast and Police Band. Requires an external antenna. Only one of these has ever sold on radio attic, so it must be fairly uncommon. In any case, you will be hard-pressed to find a nicer one. 12"W x 8-1/2"H x 7"D. $459.00. (1680079)

  • Emerson R-156 Tombstone (1938)    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  Emerson used the R-156 model designation for several radios, each one with different cabinets, but utilizing the same chassis.

  • 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)

  • Federal 1030 (1946)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  This is a post-war Federal set that you don't see that often. I wanted to make this set really look special with brown walnut and clear wood grain. You certainly will not find another one like this one. This model 1030 has been fully restored and works well on the AM and SW bands, although you will need a longer wire to get much on the SW band. The radio has been restored with the replacement of all of the filter and paper capacitors and all out of tolerance resistors.

  • Federal 1040TB "Coca Cola" (1947)    (Plastic tube table radio)  This radio had seen some hard times before I had found it. Its ivory paint was all scratched up and the dial cover was cracked and I sent away for another to be made for it. I took the case to the painter to have it refinished. And of course the radio wasn't working, soooo I started cleaning the dirty chassis and then testing the tubes, checking each, replacing any bad or weak tubes, next replaced all of the old paper and wax capacitors and the electrolytics too. It now looks pretty nice and sounds pretty nice too. 10"W x 6"H x 5-1/2"D. $245.00. (0021550)

  • Firestone S-7398-3 "Air Chief" (1939)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Firestone Stores had a nice showroom and waiting room for their customers. Consumer radios were the rage, and it gave the sales people ample time to sell the customers a new set. These were well crafted radios; the one before you is an interesting and original six-tube super-het offering both broadcast and shortwave bands. The form factor is a bit edgy for the period, and the cabinet is in original factory condition. A bit of wear for the 80+ years of service, but retaining the decals identifying the controls and other than one tiny spot of the top, a remarkable specimen. The radio offers an additional benefit of a tone control for an enhanced listening experience. The knobs, unique to the brand, are present and the six-tube super-het chassis is outstanding! This example is so original; it has the full factory back! My professional tech has undated and return to the radio to a perfect operating condition. His labors included installing a mini-jack to allow a connection to any modern device. This will allow you to listen to any content of interest.

  • Firestone S7398-5 (1939) New! (X tube table radio w/SW)  If this was a car, it would not have many miles on it. All of the tubes were original Firestone tubes and I only had to replace one. Manufactured for Firestone by Stewart-Warner, it is the same chassis as the SW 9001. The cabinet is very attractive. I gave it a nice slick finish with 15 coats of lacquer. A little more to the brown than the camera made it. This one got a gorgeous piece of veneer on its top from the cabinet maker. It performs well on the internal antenna but has a wire for more distant stations and short wave. The sound is outstanding from the perfect speaker. I fabricated a phono plug from an old tube socket that uses the factory phono plug and provided a cable for your mobile devices. A few small veneer repairs that all came out very good. One small repair to the back cover. This is a very good looking, and good sounding radio. The S7398-3 commands much higher prices, even though it is the same chassis. Save some money and buy this one! 19"W x 11"H x 9"D. $250.00. (1680088)
  • Firestone S-7403-7 (1941) ON SALE!    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Here's an impressive table set sporting the craftsmanship of Emerson's Ingraham line, from the curved in & out grille to the inlaid pin striping on three sides. The pin striping is fully intact and tight, the colorful Art Deco dial face lights up brightly and metal dial pointer is straight The grille bars have a great cut-out pattern and are in excellent condition while the back retains the original Masonite cover. Firestone offered a series of eight or nine radios in 1941 in Ingraham cabinets and this is by far the nicest, in my opinion. A wonderful original finish reveals a beautiful wood grain throughout. This radio has been recently restored electronically & plays with very good volume and selectivity on the AM band. SW will need long antenna, but of course, there is basically nothing on short wave now days. There is a switch to select the shortwave band in the back. The original knobs have felt backing to protect the case and the middle "tone" knob does work, switching from a bass to treble sound. The radio has the original back, knobs, dial, dial cover, speaker, back and chassis. A fantastic collector radio, priced to sell! 12"W x 7-1/2"H x 7"D.Was $399.00, now $329.00. (1640141)

It has a permanent magnet speaker typical of the era. It is powered by a 9 volt battery. Originally, this radio was powered by a "266" type battery.

  • General Electric P2720A Rechargeable    (Plastic transistor shirtpocket radio)  This very rare rechargeable radio is working; however, I think the rechargeable batteries don't hold a charge very long and it sounds mostly distorted.

This is an early super-het chassis, with all the advancement of automatic volume control and tone controls. The radio plays on an eight-tube chassis.

This specific radio will not accept a mini-jack and Bluetooth connection. 18-3/4"H x 13-3/4"W x 11-1/2"D. $1,195.00. (0961656)
  • 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.

  • 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 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)
  • Jackson-Bell 62 "Swan" (1930) New! (Wood tube cathedral radio)  Jackson-Bell was a Los Angeles radio manufacturer that started radio production in 1926.

It has great sensitivity across the AM dial. The capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents. The tubes and resisters have been checked and replaced where necessary. A safety fuse and a new cloth power cord were installed. An external input is available by request at an additional charge. The walnut with maple trim cabinet was stripped and refinished to a gorgeous semi-gloss finish. The original knobs, speaker and chassis are with the radio. This is a beautiful example of the collectable "Swan" model, perfect for that perfect collection! 15"H x 12-1/2"W x 8"D. $699.00. (1600373)

  • 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. My technician has completed his professional repairs and the radio plays as well as when it left the factory. He added a mini-jack for your direct connection of any modern type of device and allowing you an unlimited choice of listening please.

  • 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)

The radio before you is a very early seven-tube super-het with the AM/broadcast band.

  • 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)

  • 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)
  • Midwest 37-15 Console (1937)    (Wood tube console radio w/SW)  Here is a terrific and all original example of the famed Midwest Radio from Cincinnati, Ohio. The radio shows a tad of wear here and there, but the finish is very good, the mother of pearl factory knobs present and pristine factory original speaker cloth. These radios are quite extraordinary, as the chassis employs 15 tubes in push/pull: in other words, she is a beast. My triple FCC licensed tech has given the complex circuitry a complete repair including the dial light circuit so the dial light dims as you approach optimal tuning. The dial is one of the most ornate and detailed dials you will ever see. All has been done to replicate like new condition including a cloth covered power cord. Listening through the preinstalled mini-jack to any content of choice makes this a perfect listening as it contains a full range 12-inch speaker. Bluetooth is available!

The used the brand name Motorola, and by 1937 introduced a line of home radios and Iwo-way receivers. The 6-T is a six-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) radio. The capacitors have all been replaced with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes have been checked and replaced where necessary. A new power cord, antenna lead, safety fuse and audio input have been installed. The cabinet was stripped of it's old finish and redone using the highest quality products. The final process was a few coats of lacquer producing a gorgeous "piano" finish. This is a large radio has an eight-inch speaker with impressive volume and tone. The unique dial selector produces a different dial for each band, much like a "robot dial" function. The wood knobs, chassis and speaker are original.

Designers from cars, refrigerators, locomotives and, in some cases, radio cases from the forties. Great men and wonderful creative designers. In my opinion, however, and although I could not verify "who" designed this beautiful Motorola with its marbled brown Bakelite case is comparable to the works of the aforementioned geniuses! Electronically reconditioned with new paper and electrolytic capacitors and all out of tolerance resistors have all been replaced. The five tubes are in good shape with a new power cord added.

  • Napco 6 Transistor    (Plastic transistor shirtpocket radio)  Radio does work but only on a couple stations, one very well but it'll need servicing to get it to 100 percent again.

  • 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)

It has the Southwest styling that was popular in the late 40's. The Masonite case finish is original and shows scratches and nicks here and there. It has the original knobs, back and cord. It has a built-in antenna with a provision for adding a long wire. It has twin dial lights and a tone control. I went through the chassis and replaced filters, caps and weak tubes. I had to restring the dial cord (not fun!) and it has been aligned. It plays out with a nice mellow tube sound. This would make a great addition to your California radio collection. $275.00.

Anyway, hairline top left and a little tarnishing on tuning knob do not detract much; it's a nice looker! Leather case is in good shape, too. $175.00. (2430020)

My home made dial glass is a little blurry in places and the original grille cloth has a few flaws. A full set of high testing tubes, all new caps, resistors as necessary, and a lot of the rubber wiring replaced. Broadcast and two shortwave bands. Reception is surprisingly good on the internal antenna. There is an antenna screw for more distant stations. I have provided a cable for the included phonograph jack. Flip the switch to phono and hook up your mobile devices. If you like originality, this one is a good choice! 14"W x 10"H x 8"D. $350.00. (1680081)

The Tenite grille has a lighter color than most of these, but like most others, it has visible shrinkage and waviness. The six-tube chassis has been completely restored, with all new capacitors, new resistors where needed, a strong set of tubes, and a meticulous alignment for perfect reception on both the broadcast and shortwave bands. A new polarized power cord has been installed with switch wiring changes to improve safety. On many of these, the first pushbutton is the on-off switch; on this one, the first button is inactive (and it appears to have been that way from the factory) and the switch is on the volume control.

Whatever you call it, it is in very nice condition on this Philco table radio from 1948. A little bit of staining on the top, but all in all quite nice. Simple, attractive in a leather kind of way, and resistant to scuffs and scratches! I replaced all the capacitors, most of the resistors, and put a good set of tubes in it. 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 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)

The finials look out of place with the gold color, but are correct. The Philco 551 Colonial Clock-Radio was introduced in January of 1932 with an original selling price of $60, complete with "Philco Balanced Tubes." It was claimed to be an exact reproduction of a 19th century Eli Terry Colonial clock. Note the deep red mahogany case, with the seldom seen, Birdseye Maple inset. The radio has been recently electronically serviced. Original finish, new era correct grille cloth, works great picking up all my local stations and beyond with short antenna wire (supplied).

  • 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. This will give you the ability to listen to anything you would choose. Bluetooth is available for an additional $25! 20-1/4"H x 16"W x 12"D. $695.00. (0961551)

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.

  • Pilot 183 (1935) New! (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 213 (1936)    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  This is a really remarkable radio from one of the finest radio manufactures of the 1930's: Pilot Radio. The radio is a beauty, with a dramatically ornate cabinet with a banding of hand laid inlays contrasting the walnut veneers. This large tombstone radio sports a hugely lit, (four bulbs) 6-inch and highly stationed dial. If you are a nighttime listener, the radio offers a dramatic effect as you change bands and different parts of the dial light up. Everything about this radio speaks quality. This expertly engineered, seven-tube radio (with two multi-purpose tubes), features AM and Shortwave bands. This radio is extremely sensitive and picks up stations all across the dial. The audio quality is outstanding as well coming from the high quality speaker Pilot Radios used. I have completely gone through this radio and electronically restored it. It performs like new. The radio is a tremendous player. Pilot radios are seldom seen and offered for sale. They made superior quality sets and when found collectors tend to hoard these coveted sets. Here is the opportunity to add one to your collection. 24"H x 12"W x 10"D. $1,125.00. (0150280)

  • Pioneer SX-650 AM/FM Stereo Receiver (1976) SOLD!    (Wood audio gear w/FM)  Pioneer's SX-650 is a fine example of a beautifully engineered Japanese stereo receiver from the 1970s. The extruded aluminum panel, finely machined metal knobs, and overall aesthetic provide a timeless example of fine instrument design. The SX-650 is a mid-range receiver with 35 watts per channel, right in the sweet spot of the market of its time. It performs well in every respect, with FET FM front end, PLL stereo demodulator, FM muting, separate signal strength and centering meters for tuning, detent-style controls, and multiple inputs to connect plenty of sources, including a preamp input for magnetic phono cartridge. This one has been meticulously restored, with all 71(!) electrolytic capacitors replaced with modern long-life caps, a full AM/FM alignment for excellent reception, and cleaning of all control, switch, and relay contacts. All bulbs and indicators work properly. It really works like new and should be good for its next 40+ years of service. The front panel and knobs are in nice condition; the faux-wood cabinet covering has seen better days, but is still very presentable. Build yourself a wonderful hi-fi system around this receiver. 19"W x 6"H x 14-1/2"D. $295.00. (1310136)

  • Pla-Pal 6793 (1936)    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  Pla-Pal was an interesting factory based in the 1930's in Chicago. They were a smaller factory and made a complete but limited line of radios in the early to middle 1930's. They are often noted for novelty types of sets but offered mainstream styled radios as well. This is a rather fancy traditionally styled six-tube super-het. The cabinet is a interesting mix of veneers and this craftsmanship and detail speaks to the elevated efforts. The cabinet has been refinished by a previous collector and he replaced the speaker cloth with a period correct reproduction. The knobs are fancy and factory originals. My technician has done a complete professional repair and the radio plays like new. His work included adding a mini-jack for your ability to connect this radio to any modern type of device. Now you can listen to any kind of content and still enjoy broadcast and shortwave reception. Add Bluetooth for only $25 additional! 17-1/4"H x 12-1/2"W x 10-1/2"D. $595.00. (0961663)

The speaker grille cloth has been replaced with a cool looking equivalent and the knobs and dial cover are original. The cabinet has been stripped and professionally refinished and looks fantastic. The electronics have been completely redone with the all of electrolytic and paper capacitors replaced and all of the out of tolerance resistors replaced. The radio is also tuned for best reception on the AM dial. A real gorgeous radio and one that you will enjoy having as part of your collection. 11-3/4"W x 9-1/4"H x 6"D. $299.00. (1780013)
  • RCA Victor 6-X-8 "Wilshire" (1955)    (Plastic tube table radio)  This "Wilshire" is a seldom seen mid-century set. Its chassis has just been completely serviced with new electrolytics and tubulars. It's also been re-aligned so that this five-tube set now picks up local stations loud and clear across the AM band. Its all-original plastic cabinet is in excellent condition too. No cracks, chips, or major scratches anywhere to distract from its glossy factory finish. The palm-size tuning knob is a gorgeous gold with normal wear on its dial numbering. The gold front grille is actually a metal piece, not plastic. No rust or pitting or tarnishing. The back panel and bottom label are in mint shape. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. About 12"W x 5"H x 5-1/2"D. $678.00. (1750076)
  • RCA 7T Tombstone (1937) SOLD!    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  I love selling this series of RCA radios! The company owned most of the patents in the 1930's and offered the finest elements of technology available. This particular model is a seven-tube model with sensitivity. The radio is tall and slender. The radio plays on both broadcast and shortwave. Part of the quality features is a tone control allowing a custom pleasing sound setting and dual tuning ability with separate micro/macro tuning. The radio retains a very acceptable original finish, showing a minimal amount of wear for the eight decades of service. The speaker cloth is a perfect original and the knobs are originals; the radio is a tall and narrow cabinet with a full range speaker and a dramatic use of striped mahogany. My tech has completed his professional repairs and the radio plays as new. Everything makes this radio a fine and reliable player. Added to the radio is a mini-jack to allow you to connect the set to any modern type of device. This will allow you to listen to anything you might wish from your phone, pad or computer. Bluetooth is available for an additional $25! 20"H x 15"W x 9"D. $795.00. (0961638)

  • RCA 40X54 (1939)    (Wood tube table radio)  Hard to find RCA treasure chest model from 1939. Cabinet has been refinished with toners and a hand rubbed semi-gloss lacquer. The rope handles, grille cloth and back plate are original but the glass dial lens is a reproduction. The five-tube chassis plays perfectly with new wax/paper capacitors, tested tubes and resistors, alignment and new power cord. I don't believe the painted Bakelite knobs are original to this model.

  • RCA 40X55 (1939)    (Wood tube table radio)  RCA made several radios in 1939 that utilized the exact same chassis. This model 40X55 shares the same chassis as the 40X53 La Siesta, the World's Fair model 40X56, and the Golden Gate Exposition model 40X57. The case and the dial glass are the same on all these 1939 models, the only differences being models 56 and 57 having molded fronts depicting Fair and Expo scenes, and the 53 having a painted front. This cute model 40X55 case has been completely refinished using multiple coats of lacquer, and the chassis has had a complete restoration replacing all out of tolerance tubes, resistors and capacitors. The radio picks up many stations clearly without any problem. It also has its original back and all original labels. The grille cloth, back, handle and knobs are 100% original to the radio.

  • 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 54B3 (1950)    (Plastic tube portable radio)  Very nice four-tube AM battery set -- rare red case! Uses one "D" cell and a 67.5 volt battery. Cabinet is in nice condition without any cracks or chips and so is metal parts of the unit. The lid flips open to show the metal grille and dial. Leather handle is good and original.

All capacitors and out of tolerance resistors have have been replaced with modern equivalents. A beautiful RCA radio from the pre-War period. $325.00. (1780005)
  • 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)
  • RCA 56X3 SOLD!    (Wood tube table radio)  It's not uncommon to see this radio offered for sale, but hard to find with an excellent original finish. This one also retains the original back.

  • RCA 65X2 (1946)    (Plastic tube table radio)  Repainted in a Lexus three-stage pearl white, this five-tube 1946 RCA has an iridescent metallic glow that is difficult for the camera to capture.

Plays very well with its internal loop antenna behind a new back cover. 12"W x 7"H x 7"D. $175.00. (1550027)

  • RCA 66X8 Catalin (1946) ON SALE!    (Catalin tube table radio w/SW)  Here is a simply beautiful red Catalin "Tuna Boat" with some of the heaviest yellow swirls I have seen and is unbelievably translucent (see pic). Even the bottom and insides show beautiful swirling. The radio cabinet has been cleaned and hand polished to a high gloss using Novus #2 only (no buffing). It appears all original including knobs, grille cloth, dial, etc. No cracks, repairs or scratches. The cardboard back is a reproduction but exact pattern. 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. It is unrestored, but plays well picking up all my local stations & beyond (never play my Catalins). Near flawless. It maintains most of the factory sticker on bottom showing serial #3640. Very clean chassis! Sorry for reflections (not flaws). You do not see this model/color for sale very often. About 15-1/4"W x 8-3/4"H x 6-3/4"D.Was $1,259.00, now $1,159.00. (1640153)
  • 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. The black Catalin cabinet is heavily marbleized with tones of yellow, gold, orange, green and brown that add depth to an already stunning radio. The chassis has been totally cleaned and restored with all capacitors, pilot lamps, and weak tubes replaced, all resistors and controls checked, and the 2nd IF transformer repaired. The radio cabinet has been cleaned and polished to an incredible gloss. Radio cabinet is in perfect condition with no cracks, chips, tube burns or repairs.

  • RCA 86K Console (1937) New! (Wood tube console radio w/SW)  I don't do consoles, but a local charity had this RCA 86K Console at their fund raiser and I bought it to support their cause. It was donated by another supporter who did a reasonably decent cabinet restoration on it. I re-did the center panel slick enough to apply the RCA logo. The rest is hand finished. Not as slick as my own work, but presents fairly well. The back cover and grille cloth are not original. Broadcast, police and shortwave bands. Requires an external antenna. I gave it a full set of high testing tubes for long service life. All new capacitors, resistors as necessary, a full alignment, and I replaced all of the miserable rubber wiring. This is a very good performing radio with great sound from the large, near-perfect 12-inch speaker. This is not a common radio. Only one has ever sold on the Attic. Very much prefer local pickup. I will ship it Greyhound package service if I have to. Expect in the rough region of $250 for this. All in all, this is a great performer and not one you see every day. 38"H x 23"W x 12"D. $425.00. (1680086)

  • RCA 100A Loudspeaker New! (Metal speaker)  This rather hefty die cast survivor from the earliest days of AM radio has its original finish, although it is somewhat deteriorated, with a few dings and thin places. I had to sweat the filter network apart to fix a loose connection. I replaced the cord with period appropriate wire. The grille cloth on the front and back are not original, and are of different patterns. Not sure why. The bottom cover is present, with the the RCA markings intact. A little repair work at two of the screw points, and a little warped from age. The "motor" (yes, that's what RCA called the armature type speaker driver) is solid and tight. I tested it on my Tuska 228 and the sound is decent from the perfect speaker. It's not a beauty contest winner, but maybe third runner up, and if you have an early 20s radio, you need this baby! 13-1/4"W x 11"H x 7-3/4"D. $79.00. (1680087)

  • RCA BX-57 (1951)    (Plastic tube portable radio)  Where do you start writing about RCA? This company dominated the electronics industry from 1919 to 1970, the entire time under the direction of David Sarnoff. He acquired Marconi, Westinghouse, NBC, and many other major companies. He owned the patents on the Superheterodyne radios that most companies couldn't afford to acquire, and his tyrannical business practices were legendary. The BX-57 is a four-tube, AM only AC/DC "portable" radio. Blake replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. The radio plays well across the dial utilizing an internal "loop" antenna. The radio appears to never have been used, and it still has the original RCA price tag on it! The cabinet shows minimal wear, and there are no chips or cracks. Gary hand-polished the radio, and it looks like he just pulled it off a shelf in a store!

  • 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 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.

  • RCA X551 (1951)    (Plastic tube table radio)  If you're looking to get into antique radio on the cheap, you just hit the jackpot. This plain Jane little RCA X551 is one of RCA's "Golden Throat" radios, so named as part of an ad campaign where they endeavored to maximize sound quality with superior electrical design and matching cabinets to speakers to get the best out of the radio. This one came to me in fairly sad shape. Someone had turned the knobs with paint on their fingers, and had paint all over the radio. It had a couple of cracks, which I repaired, but are not perfect. It is missing its front panel logo. I have included a cable for your mobile devices. Just remove the brown plug from the right side, plug in the cable and adjust the volume with your mobile device and volume control. I have seen these in the price guide as high as $250. This one has some shortcomings, and I am pricing it accordingly. 12"W x 9"H x 6"D. $109.00. (1680055)

I replaced that, everything else that needed replacement and gave it a full alignment. A few dings and flaws in the finish, and not as slick as my work. The color coded dial and band switch are a nice touch. The dial is a little cloudy but readable. I couldn't find a replacement. Knobs are what was on it. No idea if they are original.

  • 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. $275.00. (1340194)
  • Silvertone 1591 "Custom" (1940-41)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  This is quite different from any of the other Sears 1591 models that I have come across over the years as it's all nicely decorated with colorful designs of fruits and flowers and quite nicely done. The radio receives broadcasts on AM with a Shortwave band and also shows the old Police band too. This is a nine-tube set and is what's called a Superheterodyne. Sears named it a "Radionet" because it has a special built-in antenna system to help bring in those distant stations. It is working perfectly; all the old capacitors have now been replaced with the newer types and it also has new filter capacitors, and a nice long vintage cloth covered style power cord and a vintage plug to match. All of the tubes have checked out good, it has a nice bright tuning eye too. 18"W x 16"H x 10"D. $425.00. (0021381)

  • Silvertone 3869 (1938)    (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)

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 4764 (1937) SOLD!    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  1936 through 1939 were the best years for Superheterodyne radios, with 1937 being one of my favorite years for electrical innovation and cabinet design. This sought after Silvertone was the top of the line in 1937, copying the popular "cube" design wanted by collectors to this day. A great performer and a simply gorgeous cabinet with four different types of veneer. This seven-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) is a strong performer with plenty of volume. We replaced all of the capacitors, checked and replaced tubes and resistors where needed. The new eye tube is bright and responsive. We added a safety fuse and an audio cable for external devices.

It plays extremely well across the dial but would benefit from an external antenna that connects to the original short wire provided. About 10-1/4"W x 5"H x 3-1/4"D. $405.00. (1750028)
  • Stewart-Warner B61T2 "Ferrodyne" (1949)    (Plastic tube table radio)  Produced only in 1949, this set is all-original and in excellent working condition. This is a six-tube radio, AM band only model. It even comes complete with its extremely rare original instructions to explain the three control knobs! Tuning is easy, and the sound is strong and clear. The case with wrap-around louvered grille is not Bakelite but an early Polystyrene "mahogany" cabinet with lots of brown swirls. The asymmetrical streamlined Art Deco styling and illuminated dial makes this set a real show-stopper. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. In fact, this was just the 3rd radio I ever bought back in 1982. About 14-1/2"W x 8"H c 7"D. $395.00. (1750015)
  • Stewart-Warner R104A Cathedral (1932)    (Wood tube cathedral radio)  Have you ever heard of a Wunderlich tube? Neither had I until I undertook the restoration of this beautiful Stewart-Warner R104A cathedral. $75 later, I had a gleaming, NIB blue Wunderlich detector tube. These were expensive then as now, and were almost never used. This very rare R104A was one of the few AC sets to ever have one. They provide full-wave detection of the audio signal instead of the half wave detection used in most radios, providing higher output and better fidelity. The beautiful two-tone classic cathedral cabinet has a few minor flaws but is overall in gorgeous condition with twelve coats of nitrocellulose lacquer. The speaker was professionally re-coned and sounds great. I had to replace the power transformer, the grille cloth, the veneer on the sides, and I had to make the tuning knob. All new capacitors and resistors as necessary, and a full alignment. A full set of tubes that all test to new specs. Receiver sensitivity is very good. This is a very uncommon radio. Only one has ever sold on radio attic. I spent a ton of time and money restoring this set. I sure hope you, like me, will think it was worth it. 18-1/2"H x 15"W x 12"D. $825.00. (1680049)
  • 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-136A (1936) ON SALE!    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Somewhat rare and gorgeous, Art Deco large table radio by Stewart-Warner. This is a deluxe radio made under the "Craft-built" label (the factory metal tag is still on the back of the cabinet) and incredible "Magic Dial" Ferrodyne radio. These radios were to compete effectively with the Ingraham Cabinet lines from Emerson and others. The brass escutcheon and "starburst" matching dial is of the double ended or airplane type. Below the dial is a planetary reduction tuning drive (not string driven). This example has been nicely refinished and retains original factory speaker, speaker cloth, dial and knobs, and rust free chassis. This is a seven-tube chassis which plays well on two bands. The radio sounds very rich with short antenna wire. Note the "Magic Dial" (referred to as it is nearly invisible until lit up) for the high accurate tuning this innovation offered. The brightly lit dial has really a dramatic night-time look. 18"W x 13-1/2"H x 11"D.Was $529.00, now $469.00. (1640154)

  • 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%.

  • Westinghouse H-448T4 (1955)    (Plastic tube table radio)  This cute lil' guy is made from Polystyrene (how may words do you know that has 2 'Y's in it) plastic that Westinghouse had a corner on with their radios in the mid-fifties. They are very nice four-tube radios that shine to beat the band... "if" they're in really good shape! This Westy qualifies 'ceptin' for the lil' bugger on the right side top (see pic). Everything else is a reflection. It plays really good and even has an external antenna connection that beefs up station sensitivity!

  • Wilcox-Gay A-33 (1937)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Here is an interesting radio! Wilcox-Gay was a factory based in Charlotte, Michigan and made some very high quality and unusually styled radios. The radio sports what became the rage in the 1937-8 period with a rotary telephone type of dial selector which allows you to preset and "dial" your favorite station. The radio is a six tube model offering both am and shortwave abilities. The cabinet is in original condition with a modest amount of wear but acceptable for an 82 year old. I believe the speaker cloth has been replaced and the knobs as well. Overall it is a desirable radio to own. My tech has completed his highly professional repairs and the set is a fine performer.

  • 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)

Z

  • Zaney-Gill Tombstone Clock Radio w/Original Stand ON SALE!    (Wood tube tombstone radio)  This Zaney-Gill clock radio dates from circa 1931 and I do not have the model number. In the twenty years I've owned this set, this is the only example I'm aware of. A very similar radio is listed in machine Age To Jet Age 2 on page 346 with the name McCormick. Noted differences include three knobs vs. two, escutcheons, differences in grille cutouts, clocks are different and the chassis would not be the same. There are only two minor issues with this radio. The dial is worn and there is some base veneer missing. The base of course does not show so I never bothered to repair it. This set is in excellent cosmetic condition. The grille cloth is the correct replacement, but the balance appears to be all original down to the power cord. The chassis has been serviced and plays well with strong reception. The clock works and keeps time. There are no chassis bolts and never were. The only thing holding in the chassis is the small wood block in the rear. It is cut so the chassis fits in and it is secured with a screw. Don't miss this opportunity to own this great piece of LA radio history ready for display and preservation. 42"H including the stand.Was $1,200.00, now $899.00. (0260691)

  • Zenith 5F-233 AM/SW (1938)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  This is a rare Zenith 5F-233 battery radio that looks like a 5S-218 cube. I have only seen two of them and I collected Zenith radios for 22 years. The case, knobs and speaker are the same as the AC playing 5S-218 and are in excellent condition. I don't work on battery radios and therefore this has not been restored. So I am selling it for a good price especially for a Zenith Collector. $295.00. (0040367)
  • Zenith 5-R-216 "Cube" (1938) New! (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-327 (1939) SOLD!    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  Here is a mid-sized and rather unusually designed Zenith tombstone radio. The cabinet design is unusual with the horizontal maple banding on a walnut cabinet. The effect is quite striking. The radio is a five-tube super-het chassis and the radio plays on both am and shortwave. The radio features five presets for your adaptation, to simply program your favorites with a one button push. This model came from central Ohio, as it retains the 80 year old station identifiers. The radio cabinet has been professionally refinished and is beautiful. The speaker cloth and knobs are factory originals. My tech has completed his professional repairs and the set is a player. His work included a mini-jack to allow your connection of any type of modern device. The radio can have the added on Bluetooth device for only $25 additional! 16"H x 11"W x 8-3/4"D. $695.00. (0961590)
  • Zenith 5-S-29 Tombstone (1936)    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  In 1936, the Rural Electrification Act of 1936 started to set up rural areas in America with electricity. Zenith dropped prices and started producing table radios with smaller black dials. Zenith sales jumped significantly, and more and more people were hired. The 5-S-29 is a five-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) radio. The smaller dial had the multi-color bands and "split-second" tuning. All of the capacitors have been replaced. The resistors and tubes were checked, and out-of-tolerance components were replaced. A new cloth power cord, external audio cable, new antenna lead and safety fuse were installed. The cabinet was stripped and refinished using the best products available. This particular cabinet has the desirable maple band around the bottom creating a beautiful contrast to the walnut veneer. A cool design feature was the metal bezel, which is just a smaller version of the console bezels. The original knobs, chassis and reckoned speaker were used, and a new period-correct grille cloth installed. Once again, if you are looking for this radio for your collection, it doesn't get any better than this! 18"H x 13"W x 9"D. $829.00. (1600365)
  • Zenith 5-S-218 "Cube" (1938) New! (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  These highly collectable Zenith radios, referred to as a "Cube," was a huge success for Zenith. Soon other manufacturers were designing and selling their own versions of this popular radio. This iconic, good sounding, reliable radio created a huge following and are still desirable radios to this day. Zenith made six models of the "Cube" with the 5-S-218 being the second largest model after the 6-S-222. The 5-S-218 is a five-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. All of the capacitors were replaced with new, Mylar equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. A safety fuse, new power cord, antenna lead and input cable were installed. Gary did his usual masterful work on the gorgeous Walnut and Mahogany cabinet, stripping off the old finish and ending up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The radio has the original knobs, speaker and chassis, and the original grille cloth was used. This is a perfect Zenith "cube" for your collection! 12"W x 11"H x 9"D. $649.00. (1600374)
  • Zenith 5-S-218 "Cube" (1938) SOLD!    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  This is a modestly sized famous Zenith Radio black dial. Within, the modest size and price, lays a terrific five-tube, "All American Five" super-het chassis. These highly reliable radios offered fine service and excellent sound quality from a 6-inch speaker. These models play on both AM and Shortwave. The radio was refinished by a previous collector and the work is accurate and excellent with a high luster. The photos show the expertise and the radio retains all other factory installed parts including the wood knobs with the iconic "Z" logo. My triple licensed tech has given the radio a terrific update in his professional repairs and the set is a "hot" receiver. He added a mini-jack for our connection to any modern device or Bluetooth receiver. There is an unlimited amount of free content along with the original bands through these connections. Bluetooth is available for $25 additional! 12"W x 10-1/2"H x 10-1/2"D. $695.00. (0961634)
  • 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" (1938)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Fully restored electronics, plays super. Good original grille cloth and damage free original speaker. Original knobs and good working pushbuttons. Nicely lighted dial. $429.99. (0380541)
  • Zenith 5-S-319 "Racetrack" (1939) New! SOLD!    (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 was designed in 1938 for the 1939 model year and 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 to this day is still very collectable. The same radio chassis was also available in a small tombstone cabinet, and a chairside design. 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 and audio cable were installed. The radio plays great, and the audio cable works quite well. Gary stripped, grain-filled, and painted the radio and finished with a "piano" lacquer finish. 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. $795.00. (1600368)
  • 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-516    (Bakelite tube table radio)  This little Bakelite Zenith has been restored inside and out. The cabinet has been professionally repainted back to its original ivory finish. The chassis has been polished and cleaned, and electronically restored, replacing all capacitors and out of tolerance resistors. A new dial face cover has been installed so you can see the beautiful, black dial clearly. The radio has BC only and plays loud and clear. This great prewar set will make a great addition to your collection. $179.00. (0620106)
  • Zenith 6-D-525 "Toaster"    (Wood tube table radio)  The finish, dial lens, knobs and back are all original. The chassis has been completely rebuilt and plays very strongly with good volume and tone. A superb radio! $350.00. (0380346)
  • Zenith 6-D-628 (1942)    (Wood tube table radio)  Before Zenith went into wartime production this zenith model was one of the last they produced. It's one of Zenith's finest most popular designs. This Zenith radio has been completely restored and is in very nice condition. All of the tubes were checked on my tube checker, all of the older paper capacitors have now been replaced with the new longer lasting types, each circuit has been checked and everything is working correctly. I installed a new power cord and also replaced the broken dial cover with a new one. It has a good solid back cover. 12"W x 7-1/2"H x 6-3/4"D. $285.00. (0021530)
  • 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-D-629 "Boomerang" (1942)    (Wood tube table radio)  Collectors are starting to notice these early 40s table radios, and this Zenith 6D629 is one of the reasons. Called the "boomerang" due to the shape of the dial, it is stylish, attractive and very well made. The tuning mechanism is interesting in that they put the tuner drive in front of the speaker, allowing them to get a larger speaker in a smaller cabinet. The resulting sound is at the top of the class for a radio this size. The near perfect cabinet is slick and gorgeous. Receives well on the "wave magnet" antenna, with screws for external antenna. All high testing tubes, all new caps, resistors as necessary. New dial cover and new grille cloth. The back needed a lot of work from considerable road rash. The knobs are not available so I had to sub some similar ones. One heck of a nice radio taken all together. 14"W x 8-1/2"H x 7-1/2"D. $429.00. (1680075)
  • Zenith 6-D-2620 (1942)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  This is a uniquely styled little wood radio made just before the WWII ban on U.S. consumer radio manufacturing. Famous Zenith black dial, international short wave reception and nicely rounded top and inward slopping sides makes this radio highly prized by collectors. Powerful, six tube performance with a built in antenna or a short indoor antenna for short wave (supplied). Perfect wood with great original finish and knobs. Restored by Antique Electric Radios. Dial cover, speaker, line cord and capacitors replaced. Tubes checked, tuned, aligned and dial calibrated. 117 volt AC/DC, AM, SW, 14"W x 9"H x 7"D, 7 pounds. $240.00. (0360115)
  • Zenith 6-S-229 Tombstone (1936) ON SALE!    (Wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)  Big black 6-inch lighted dial which Zenith made famous and still a favorite of most collectors. This six-tuber was recently restored electronically and plays loud and clear as it should. The top has been refinished and toned, but the rest is the original factory faux finish which was often destroyed, which prompted owners/collectors to strip and refinish which diminishes the value thereof IMHO. The wooden "Z" knobs dial, etc. are all original. The grille cloth is Zenith, period correct and in excellent condition. Chassis is very clean. The radio is a strong player with great selectivity and sound quality. All components have been reviewed and replaced where bad or failing. 17-1/2"H x 13"W x 9-1/2"D.Was $499.00, now $449.00. (1640163)
  • Zenith 6-S-254 "Teardrop" Console (1937)    (Wood tube console radio w/SW)  This radio has had a complete chassis rebuild with all new capacitors and full signal alignment. Plays broadcast (AM) and shortwave with great volume and tone controls. An RCA jack as been added so you can feed your favorite audio source through the radio controls. $750.00. (0380535)
  • Zenith 6-S-527 (1941)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  Zenith made a very attractive and popular radio in the 6S527. The pinstriped bands of veneer, and the elaborate speaker grille are very eye-catching. The cabinet was quite nice as received. I touched up a few places and put four coats of nitrocellulose lacquer over it. It retains a few dings and witness marks from its 80 years of prior service, but overall presents very well. The sound is quite good from the 4-inch perfect speaker. A labor-intensive restoration as I had to replace a lot of the miserable rubber wiring. A full set of good tubes, all new capacitors, including stuffing the original Filter cap, resistors as necessary, and a full alignment. The original knobs and buttons are not the best but I thought did not warrant replacement. I replaced the dangerous 6X5 rectifier tube with a solid-state rectifier. Broadcast and short wave. Receives well on the internal wave magnet antenna, but has connections on back for more distant station. All in all a great looking and great performing radio, backed by the Zenith slogan, "The quality goes in before the name goes on." 16"W x 8-1/2"H x 7"D. $399.00. (1680082)
  • Zenith 7-J-328 (1939)    (Wood tube table radio w/SW)  In 1939 and 1940, Zenith produced a line of very large table radios. They had the chassis and speakers of console radios, but could sit on a table top, but sales of the sets were not good. Those low production numbers make them very rare today. The 7-J-328 is a seven-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) radio. The "J" designation makes it both 6VDC and 110VAC, and is switchable between the two voltages. 1939 was pretty much the last year Zenith made 6VDC or "farm" radios as the REA (Rural Electrification Act) had electrified most of the rural parts of America. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. All of the resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. The 6-volt side of the power supply was rebuilt and functions perfectly. We added a safety fuse, new power cord, new battery leads and an audio input. The cabinet was stripped and redone right to a "piano" lacquer finish. All of the original knobs, chassis and speakers are with the set. We installed a period-correct grille cloth. This radio is the rarest of the rare, and I doubt any of us will see another one! What a unique and beautiful set to add to your collection! 23"W x 14"H x 12-1/2"D. $1,495.00. (1600360)
