Philco 42-355
|
item #1095
|
Check this one out. It is one of the larger Philco table radios, Model 42-355 from 1942. The wood cabinet is solid and the finish is surprisingly good except on top where there is a small cigarette burn and the right side where a small area needs relacquering. Cord cut so radio untested. Receives broadcast and short wave bands. Looks to be in original condition including knobs (good shape) pushbuttons (not so good), grille cloth (good shape) and escutcheon (one crack and slightly warped as is usual for these but does not need replacing). Bargain price for this model radio (expect shipping to be $25-30 due to size and weight)

Emerson Model Unknown
|
item #1093
|
Big Emerson radio probably from 1938 based on other similar models. Wood case is made by Ingraham (original emblem intact) and in decent condition but the veneer on the inside along the top back needs some regluing. Original finish needs rejuvenating but is not bad. Cord cut so radio untested. Interesting pilot lamp arrangement on top to signal the band selected (short wave, police or broadcast). Original knobs and dial in good shape.

Emerson 510
|
item #1089
|
One of my favorite designs is this Emerson Model 510. The wood case is in very good condition. I have tried to determine if it was refinished (old lacquer removed) but it looks so good that I will just mention that as a possibility. On the bottom the cabinet is separating and should be glued back but not noticeable unless you turn the radio over. The radio powered up and received many stations but the volume control a bit scratchy so I would suggest a little WD40 to fix. All the trim on the radio appears original and in great shape including knobs, plaskon grille cover, dial (plastic cover a little loose and needs to be glued), and one of the few bakelite backs I have ever seen without damage. Restoration service available on this radio for additional $25.

Philco 39-7
|
item #1088
|
Philco Model 39-7 from 1939. Wood case in solid condition and original finish mostly intact but lacquer showing some age and wear marks especially on top. Some cleaning and polishing should rejuvenate it. Radio powered up and I was able to get one station so some repair necessary. Pushbuttons (a little stiff so need to be cleaned/lubricated) , knobs, dial in great shape.

Kadette 66X
|
item #1087
|
This is a rare Kadette Model 66X from 1936 made by the International Radio Corporation, Ann Arbor MI. The wood case is solid and you may be able to rejuvenate the original finish. The power cord is in rough shape so radio sold untested but looks complete. Interesting factory painted green chassis and the tubes are all Kadette (how's that for an original radio). Knobs, dial and grille cloth in good condition. Even the Kadette decal on the bottom is intact.

Meteor 7213
|
item #1086
|
I sold a Meteor radio a while ago and here is another one. They are not very common. This one is a Model 7213 from about 1938. The wood case is solid but the finish is worn and probably needs refinishing. I was pleasantly surprised when I powered up the radio and it worked but it still should be thoroughly checked out. Everything looks original on the radio and in good shape including knobs, dial, and speaker cloth. Interesting radio to add to your collection.
