Bendix 112 (1948).   This fairly compact Bendix table radio is complete with original knobs and back cover. It has an interesting metal escutcheon around the dial. The chassis is complete with tubes. Everything looks restorable. If you would like me to restore the chassis to like-new operation, I can do so for an additional $85 (this does not include any cabinet restoration). Buyer pays actual shipping cost (I will use Pirateship.com to minimize shipping cost).  Tom Albrecht.   E-mail: ctalbrecht@yahoo.com    Phone: 408-425-1578  $45.00.  (0000163)

Bendix 636D (1946).   This large Bendix table radio was refinished by a prior owner and looks pretty good. It has a unique stamped brass front grille. Chassis is complete with tubes; the original back is missing. Everything looks restorable. If you would like me to restore the chassis to like-new operation, I can do so for an additional $85 (this does not include any cabinet restoration). Buyer pays actual shipping cost (I will use Pirateship.com to minimize shipping cost).  Tom Albrecht.   E-mail: ctalbrecht@yahoo.com    Phone: 408-425-1578  $65.00.  (0000162)

Bendix 636D (1946).   This light oak table radio proudly indicates that it was made by the Bendix Aviation Corporation. The light oak cabinet was refinished by a prior owner and looks pretty nice. The chassis was also previously restored and is in good working order. The nice reverse-painted dial really stands out. The original knobs are present, but have deformed a bit over the years. A replacement back was made by the prior owner. This radio has a factory phono input, selected by the center knob, which also serves as a tone control. Buyer to pay actual shipping cost (I will use Pirateship.com to keep shipping cost to a minimum).  Tom Albrecht.   E-mail: ctalbrecht@yahoo.com    Phone: 408-425-1578  $90.00.  (0000165)

Delco R-1126 (1937).   If you're looking to get into the Eye Tube club on a budget, consider this nifty Delco R-1126 from 1937. Delco settled on a simple, yet attractive cabinet design, with a large, brightly lit gold dial and the distinctive bronze grille cloth that I matched as best I could. The original finish was very nice on this radio, so I touched it up and overcoated it with a couple of shots of gloss lacquer. I replaced all the caps and resistors and fitted with a full set of high testing tubes for long service life. It even has the original antenna wire still coiled up on the spool. A full alignment produced a pretty good receiver on Broadcast with a very accurate dial. The shortwave only goes to 6 mhz, but works well. The knobs are not original, but resemble the originals and complement the radio nicely. All in all, a fairly swell little radio. Four of these have sold on the Radio Attic topping out at $495 last year. Requires an external antenna. 15"W x 10"H x 8"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net  $425.00.  (0000058)

Detrola 146 (1937).   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.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net   ON SALE - was $359.00, now $299.00.  (0000059)

Emerson 414 "Wheat" (1933).   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.  Mark Toppo.   E-mail: lindatoppo32@gmail.com  $595.00.  (0000010)

Emerson 414 Repwood "Fleur-de-Lis" (1933).   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. 5"W x 7"H x 7"D.  Ken & Mona DeLackner.   E-mail: mdelack@hotmail.com  $350.00.  (0000145)

Emerson 520 (1946).   If Shiny and eye catching is your thing you will love this dazzling little Emerson 520. The finish is just gorgeous and the wood grain pattern is very distinctive. The chassis is just a plain AA5 with on/off/volume and tuning. After restoration it receives fairly well on the internal antenna. I added an external wire for more distant stations. The back cover is not original. The front is slightly bowed out in the middle, but I don't find this objectionable. This was, I'm sure, a very low budget radio in its day, but now it is quite a standout that will definitely get noticed. I sure did, and maybe paid a little too much for it. This one has a few shortcomings, so I'm pricing it accordingly. 11"W x 9"H x 6-1/2"D  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net  $339.00.  (0000061)

Emerson BA201 (1938).   Get a load of this nifty little Emerson BA201. As late 30s budget radios go, this one is a pretty nice example. The big, bold wood dial escutcheon really stands out against the walnut veneer on the front. Inside is a minimalist four-tube TRF with a 5-inch good sounding speaker. After my usual thorough restoration, it is a decent player with fairly good dial accuracy. The sides and top were just poorly matched pine, so I had to tint them dark. The speaker was replaced with a permanent magnet type by a previous servicer, so I removed his ballast resistor and replaced it with a proper filter choke. I had to make the rear cover and dial glass. The dial is a little deteriorated, but presentable. The finish is slick and gorgeous, with a few minor specks and dings that they all have. The shiny, dark color didn't photograph very well. Trust me. It is exceptional. This is rare. If you are an Emerson person, this is one you probably don't have, and I hope you want! It has the TRF antenna volume control, so you have to crank the volume for weaker stations. Requires an external antenna. 10"W x 8"H x 6"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net  $329.00.  (0000064)

Emerson DQ398-CH-DQ (1941) .   SOLD!  This rare and desirable Emerson features an Ingraham designed cabinet that is totally unique in its shape. Featuring inlayed pinstripes (an Ingraham trademark), these don't turn up too often! With five tubes, it receives all of my local AM stations. Plays strong across the dial with its large built-in loop antenna. Or use the 3.5mm aux cord, included at no extra cost, to play your own content. All electrolytic and paper caps have been replaced, tubes tested strong, controls were cleaned and lubricated. Cabinet was refinished using spray toners and topped with a spray of clear enamel for durability. Original Emerson pointed knobs. New dial cover, back cover and line cord. 14"W x 9-1/2"H x 7-1/2"D.  $149.00.  (0000127)

Emerson DS-436 (1940-1941).   When I was a kid, Cadillac was the king of cars. If a radio was going to be a Cadillac, it would be this awesome Emerson DS346. This thing has features galore. Linear scale indicators for volume and tone. A bright new tuning eye. Huge, perfect, "shock mounted" 8-inch speaker that sounds just incredible, driven by the perfectly matched 6L6 push-pull outputs. A very well designed chassis that has a unique mounting, where it is suspended on rubber washers instead of sitting on the base like most are. The Ingraham cabinet is very stylish and ornate. A couple of "witness marks" too deep to sand, so I filled them before covering the cabinet with 18 coats of lacquer for a nice, slick finish. A not too bad stain on the top. The chassis was restored when I got it, and the workmanship looks good. Receives well on the internal antenna with a wire for external. These are rare. Here's your chance to own one very impressive radio. 18"W x 12-1/2"H x 12"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net   ON SALE - was $649.00, now $599.00.  (0000065)

Fairbanks-Morse TCO 57 (1936).   Rare Fairbanks-Morse TCO Model 57 made in 1936. This is a fully restored and aligned table top model with a pristine waterfall veneer that rolls over front to back, vents on both ends, and a large well-lit one-piece bullet dial. The two bands (Broadcast & Shortwave) both work well. Many components have been replaced or rebuilt including all tubes, resistors, capacitors, power transformer, band selector switch, volume control, speaker, etc. 16"W x 10"H x 9-1/2"D; 12 lbs.  .  $495.00.  (ends 11/13/2026)  (0000147)

Garod 6A-2 (1947).   The "moderne" styling and gloss finish of this 1947 Garod make it stand out. The six-tube chassis has had all wax and electrolytic capacitors replaced, tubes and resistors checked, and alignment peaked. A high gloss lacquer was used in the cabinet restoration. Plays like new with an internal loop antenna. 13"W x 8"H x 7"D.  Jeff Moreland.   E-mail: metroman97@gmail.com  $195.00.  (0000094)

General Electric J62 (1940/1941).   The unique and attractive J62 "jewel box" was a very good seller for GE and quite a few have survived. This one had been stripped, stained and varnished when I got it. You can't strip wiped on stain, so I touched it up the best I could and put ten coats of lacquer and two sanding operations on it. Still some grain and joints showing. I was able to remove most of the stain from the latticework and grille to give it back some contrast. The last guy left the GE logo, so there was nothing I could do about that. The back cover has a small piece broken off near the bottom. All that said, the chassis is well made and a fairly good performer. The sound is surprisingly good from the perfect 5-inch speaker. Receives well on the internal antennas, with a terminal for external. I made a cable for the phono jack. As with the original, you tune off-station and connect your mobile device. My usual thorough restoration, with all high testing tubes for long service life. Despite its minor shortcomings, this is still a very nice little radio. Broadcast and short wave. 15"W x 10-1/2"H x 8-1/2"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net  $249.00.  (0000070)

Gilfillan 711T (1937).   A rare radio in any condition and this may be one of the best examples. It retains the original knobs and grille cloth. The entire finish on the front of the radio is all original. The balance of the cabinet has been refinished back to original including an exact match of the center gold stripe. The dial shows minor wear near the center from the pointer. The chassis has been serviced including a new NOS tuning eye. The set receives strong AM but little is offered on the short wave. 17"W x 9-1/2"H x 9"D.  Mark Toppo.   E-mail: lindatoppo32@gmail.com  $599.00.  (0000012)

Grunow 588 (1937).   This "teledial" model from 1937 has a restored five-tube chassis and refinished cabinet. All wax and electrolytic capacitors were replaced, resistors and tubes checked and alignment peaked. Period correct toners and a semi gloss lacquer were used to restore the cabinet. Plays great on both AM and short wave bands but does need a long wire antenna for reception. 14"W x 9"H x 8"D.  Jeff Moreland.   E-mail: metroman97@gmail.com  $375.00.  (0000097)

Magnavox OFMO18 (1958).   You can see the influence of Mid Century design in this Magnavox AM/FM radio. Originally this had a paper veneer. At some point it was removed and stained. I thought about painting the cabinet and grille in a contrasting color. I will leave that up to the new owner. It is missing the back and there is a ding in the back top rim. Overall it is in good condition. It has strong clear AM reception but no FM. It is offered as is for restoration or to display and enjoy as is. 15"W x 9"H x 7-1/2"D.  Mark Toppo.   E-mail: lindatoppo32@gmail.com  $89.00.  (0000015)

Philco 38-62 (1938) .   SOLD!  Bold Art Deco styling is prevalent on this five-tube Philco. Cabinet is original finish, including the "Philcote" faux woodgrain finish front panel, usually hopelessly chipped or sanded off. As it darkened with age, I added a more prominent pin-striping to accent the aesthetics of the cabinet. Cabinet was given a light spray of clear enamel to preserve the finish. Grille cloth is original. Original dial scale has a small chip on the top edge and some darkened areas + one worn off spot. All filter and paper capacitors replaced. Tubes all tested good. Plays loud and strong, receiving all of my local stations. Requires a long wire external antenna to receive stations. Because a universal antenna coil was installed to replace the faulty original, the police band is non-functional (nothing much can be received on it anyway). Or use the 3.5mm aux cord, included at no extra cost, to play your own content. 16"W x 10-1/2"H x 9"D.  $219.00.  (0000128)

Philco 41-255 (1941).   This elaborate Philco table radio is in nice condition and is fully restorable. Cabinet finish is original and presentable as-is. Chassis is complete and clean with all tubes. If you would like me to electrically restore this radio to like-new operation, I can do that for an additional $85 (which does not include cabinet restoration). Buyer pays actual shipping cost (I will use Pirateship.com to minimize shipping cost).  Tom Albrecht.   E-mail: ctalbrecht@yahoo.com    Phone: 408-425-1578  $65.00.  (0000160)

Puritan 6A35WG-504W (1946).   Puritan brand radios were marketed by Pure Oil Company in their gas stations. This model was made in 1946 by Wells Gardner for Pure Oil. The six-tube, two-band chassis has been restored with replacement of all wax and electrolytic capacitors, the tubes and resistors were checked and alignment peaked. The cabinet has been refinished with period correct lacquer toners and a semi-gloss finish. Internal loop antenna received local stations but an external antenna will be needed for short wave reception. 17"w x 10"H x 9"D.  Jeff Moreland.   E-mail: metroman97@gmail.com  $220.00.  (0000107)

RCA 68R3 (1946).   This 1946 RCA has AM/FM using the current FM band. The radio is offered unrestored. It is receiving stations on AM but does not receive FM. The cabinet is in good condition showing some wear with just some small edge chips on the bottom edge of the left side. A nice complete set including the original back ready to restore or display as is. 17"W X 12-1/2"H x 9"D.  Mark Toppo.   E-mail: lindatoppo32@gmail.com  $109.00.  (0000025)

RCA 95X1 (1938).   From 1938, this RCA still retains its original finish. The four-tube chassis has had its resistors and tubes checked and all capacitors replaced. Its a TRF circuit, plays local stations well with a 15-foot long wire antenna. The push buttons on top are marked with stations from the Kansas City area in the late 1930s. 10"W x 8"H x 6"D.  Jeff Moreland.   E-mail: metroman97@gmail.com  $225.00.  (0000110)

RCA 96T1 (1938).   Fantastic style and veneer detail on this 1938 RCA. The six-tube chassis had been restored by replacing all wax paper and electrolytic capacitors, tubes and resistors were checked and alignment peaked. A fuse was added to protect the power transformer. Period correct toners and a semi-gloss lacquer were used to restore the cabinet. Needs a long wire antenna for reception. 16"W x 11"H x 7"D.  Jeff Moreland.   E-mail: metroman97@gmail.com  $295.00.  (0000111)

RCA 96T3 (1938).   Here's a six-tube, three-band (AM + 2 short wave) late tombstone style RCA. Electrolytic and paper caps have been replaced, Proper RCA all metal tubes tested strong, controls were cleaned and lubricated. It receives all of my local stations with a long wire attached or use the built in RCA jack on the back of the chassis to play your own audio content. Has a bank of push-button presets, with the left-hand button designated for the aux RCA jack and the right-hand button needing to be depressed for dial tuning. The Tenite escutcheon is still nice and straight and the Tenite pushbuttons, usually so brittle they break off or are missing altogether, are still intact and function as they should. The entire cabinet was refinished using spray toners and topped with a spray of clear enamel for durability. It doesn't show up too well in the photo, but it has a very pretty light green backlit dial that really pops in a dark room. 15-1/2"W x 12-1/2"H x 9-1/2"D.  Tom Albrecht.   E-mail: ctalbrecht@yahoo.com    Phone: 408-425-1578  $219.00.  (0000166)

RCA A20 (Canada, 1939/40).   From our RCA friends north of the border in Montreal, Canada comes this really unique model A20 "Globetrotter." The cabinet is just amazing with the waterfall front, chrome effects fronting the original grille cloth, keyboard style tuning dial and side mounted tuning and tone controls. My usual thorough chassis restoration produced a fairly good performer on broadcast, and some of the best shortwave reception I've seen on any home receiver. The sound is pretty good from the 5-inch speaker. I rigged up a mobile device cable to plug into the phono jack on the rear. Plug in the cable, switch the switch on the back to phono, and set the volume with the mobile device. The cabinet was refinished by a previous servicer. While it isn't as slick as my work, it is respectable. I gambled on this little sweetie having no idea its value. I think it is a very interesting and eye catching design. I sure would like to find it a good home. Requires an external antenna. 14"W x 11"H x 10"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net  $295.00.  (0000080)

Silvertone 1661 (1940).   This Sears Silvertone from 1940 has a Bluetooth receiver added for playing streaming audio wirelessly. The six-tube chassis was restored by replacing all electrolytic and wax capacitors, resistors and tubes were checked and alignment peaked. The cabinet was refinished with period correct lacquer toners and a semi-gloss finish. The small switch on the back panel powers on the Bluetooth receiver so streaming audio can be played through the radio's speaker. Internal loop antenna for reception of local AM stations. 15"W x 10"H x 8"D.  Jeff Moreland.   E-mail: metroman97@gmail.com  $200.00.  (0000112)

Silvertone 6050 (1946) .   This Sears Roebuck catalog radio features six tubes, a tone control, and a bold Art Deco inspired chrome dial bezel. It's rare to find these with such nice original chrome. Usually, they are discolored or pitted and require painting. AM only, it receives all the local stations with a just its long antenna. Has the 3.5mm aux cord added at no extra cost for more listening options. All the paper and electrolytic capacitors have been replaced, tubes tested good, new line cord. New clear dial cover and new grille cloth. The wood cabinet has been nicely refinished by the previous owner with toner and dark accents. A sharp looking post-war radio. 14-1/2"W x 8-1/4"H x 8"D.  Greg Van Beek.   E-mail: nostalgiaradiotime@yahoo.com  $179.00.  (0000130)

Silvertone 6320 (1939).   The Silvertone 6320 is easily one of the more unique small table radios in my experience. The chassis is mounted upside down, and the mechanical piano key presets are reminiscent of an old time car radio. The shiny brass escutcheon is bright and eye catching. The otherwise decent chassis was very difficult to restore, due to the enclosed circuitry, but the result was a fairly good player. The sound from the perfect 5-inch speaker is fairly good. Picks up local stations on the internal antenna, with a wire for more distant stations. The cabinet was refinished by a previous restorer. He didn't do very well on the right side, but the value of the radio doesn't warrant stripping and refinishing, so I am pricing it accordingly. Not quite as bad in person as the camera made it look. He made a not very good back cover, but, again, the radio value precludes getting a new one. All in all a unique and interesting little radio, and not one you see every day. 10-3/4"Wx 7-3/4"H x 5-3/4"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net  $229.00.  (0000159)

Stewart-Warner 07-5R5 (1940).   In the small, AA5 wood cabinet table radio category, you will be hard pressed to beat this very attractive Stewart-Warner 07-5R5. The Ingraham cabinet is covered with gorgeous veneers, sensuous curves, and an attractive grille design. The original finish was very nice so I touched it up and left it. The grain is showing in the walnut burl front, but only if you look very close. My usual thorough chassis rebuild produced a fairly good player on the internal antenna, with a screw terminal for more distant listening. The shortwave band, selected by a switch on the back, only goes to 7 Mhz, but works fairly well. All high testing tubes for long service life. This is a very attractive little radio, and is also rare. Only one has sold on the Radio Attic at $350. 15"W x 7"H x 7"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net  $329.00.  (0000081)

Stewart-Warner R110AT (1933).   There were several different radios offered by Stewart-Warner with the 110 series chassis. This 1933 ten-tube set has twin speakers. Offered is the rare three-knob version which does not have short wave bands. At some point part of the dial rim above 150 chipped off and was glued back in as shown. The sides are planks of solid wood glued together. There is a separation between the two planks on the left side; neither defect detracts from the overall set. It retains an excellent finish with original grille cloth. The radio has been serviced and is a strong performer across the AM band. 15"W x 13" x 12"D.  Mark Toppo.   E-mail: lindatoppo32@gmail.com  $749.00.  (0000031)

Stromberg-Carlson 1110 (1946).   Stromberg-Carlson got their start making some of the earlier telephone switching equipment. Their equipment was famous for reliability, and when they moved to New York and branched out into radio, they carried that commitment into the new business. This 1110 is a nice example of that commitment to quality. The very well designed chassis is a good performer on the internal antenna, with screws for external. Six preset buttons can be used on either BC or SW, not a common feature. The cabinet is covered with attractive veneers and 15 coats of lacquer for a nice slick finish. I fine tuned a previous restoration, installed all high testing tubes and gave it a full alignment. The sound is the most amazing I have ever heard from a 5-inch speaker. I have provided a mobile device cable for the phono input. The finish on the dial bezel it a bit deteriorated, but not bad enough to risk fooling with it. A few dings and specks, but overall a very nice cabinet. Definitely an upper crust table radio. 16"W x 9-1/2"H x 9"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net   ON SALE - was $599.00, now $549.00.  (0000083)

Trav-Ler 527 (1937).   This teledial Trav-Ler has a restored five-tube superheterodyne chassis that has been restored by replacing all wax and paper capacitors, checking tubes and resistors and peaking alignment. The cabinet has been refinished with period correct lacquer toners and a semi-gloss finish. AM band only and does need a long wire antenna for reception. 14"W x 9"H x 8"D.  Jeff Moreland.   E-mail: metroman97@gmail.com  $225.00.  (0000115)

Westinghouse H-130 (1946).   SOLD!  Six tube post-war Westinghouse that is a strong performer with two 25L6 output tubes in push-pull, coupled with a large 6-inch diameter speaker. Unusual yet aesthetically pleasing cabinet design with top slide rule dial, lighted W emblem and four controls on the front panel (off/on/volume, tone, tuning and radio/phono). This has a built in RCA jack in the back that can be used for a phono or any other external audio device with a headphone port. Because this functions as would my usual 3.5mm aux cord, one was not added to this set. This is the wood cabinet version of the bakelike radio that could be detached from a phonograph, the model H122, using the same chassis. Nothing was refinished on this radio; the cabinet finish is all original as are the knobs, grille cloth and back cover. There is some age-related crazing and minor finish loss on top but all in all it's a remarkably well preserved 80-year-old radio. The chassis has been recapped, tubes tested strong, controls cleaned & lubricated, so it plays loud and clear across the dial with its built-in loop antenna. If you collect all original finish radios, here's one to consider. 14"W x 9"H x 6-1/2"D.  $149.00.  (0000152)

Zenith 5K037 Farm Radio.   This large Zenith battery-powered farm radio has a cool telescoping whip antenna. The chassis is complete and looks fully restorable. It requires special "A" and "B" batteries to operate. The cabinet is a bit dirty, and might benefit from refinishing. The original speaker is present and appears to be in good condition. If you would like me to restore the chassis to like-new operation, I can do so for an additional $85 (this does not include any cabinet restoration). Buyer pays actual shipping cost (I will use Pirateship.com to minimize shipping cost).  Tom Albrecht.   E-mail: ctalbrecht@yahoo.com    Phone: 408-425-1578  $65.00.  (0000164)

Zenith 6-D-316 (1938/39).   Here is a seldom seen Zenith tabletop model brought out in late 1938 for the 1939 model year. It's a six-tube radio that spent most of its life in Rochester, NY based on the stations identified on a couple of its push buttons. The knobs and pushbuttons are original. The case has been professionally restored in toning lacquers to take it back to its original appearance on a Zenith showroom shelf in 1939. And it has beautiful new period grille cloth, a new power cord, with a new Retro Tronics back. The original escutcheon looks great and does not have any cracks or damage. The chassis has been gone over by my tech, and everything that needed updating and replacing was done. The radio dial lights up and tunes in all my local stations clearly. I have added a link of antenna wire to enhance reception. About 13-1/2"Wx 8"H x 6"D. "ZENITH! The quality goes in before the name goes on!"  David Spivey.   E-mail: wdspivey@outlook.com   ON SALE - was $298.00, now $249.00.  (0000123)

Zenith 6-D-317 (1938/1939).   Among the most unique and attractive table radios ever made you would have to count this Zenith 6D317 World's Fair Glass Rod table radio. Zenith made this for the 1938 San Francisco World's fair, and I don't think a great many of them have survived. My buddy John suggested I illuminate the glass rods in a red, white, and blue theme, so I did. I think it's really cool, but if you don't like it there is a switch on the back to turn them off. A very nice finish with 20 coats of lacquer and three sanding operations. A few minor shortcomings from 90 years of service. My usual professional chassis restoration. Original knobs and buttons are a bit less than perfect, but very presentable. I had to make the back cover. This is a very unique and highly sought after radio, and not one you see every day. The lighted rods are amazing, and the performance is very good. I have a ton of work in it and I hope you will think it is worth the price. Requires an external antenna. 14"W x 8"H x 8"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net  $1,099.00.  (0000086)

Zenith 6-D-525 (1941).   Referred to as the "Toaster" by collectors, this nifty little Zenith 6D525 must have been one of the hottest sellers of all time.Getting the lacquer in all of those little slots and that wooden speaker grille was a challenge, but I finally got it. The result is a very attractive little radio with pretty darn good performance thanks to the rare, dedicated RF amplifier tube. The back cover is a little beat up, but I like having the original on there. Someone replaced the antenna with one from a 6D520. That has a tone switch on it, which I thought was good, so I implemented it and drilled a hole for the switch, unfortunately right in the middle of the logo. The knobs are reproductions. All in all a very nice little radio. If you aren't one of the hundred folks who already bought one, here's your chance to jump on the bandwagon. 12"W x 7-1/2"H x 7"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net  $379.00.  (0000087)

Zenith 6-D-538 (1941).   This is one of the "toaster" styled Zenith models from 1941. The six-tube chassis has been restored by replacing all wax and electrolytic capacitors, tubes and resistors were checked and alignment peaked. The cabinet has been refinished with period correct lacquer toners and a semi-gloss finish. The original knobs were hopelessly warped so reproduction "Z" knobs are in place now as well as a reproduction back panel. Plays well with its internal loop antenna for local stations. 12"W x 7"H x 7"D.  Jeff Moreland.   E-mail: metroman97@gmail.com  $295.00.  (0000117)

Zenith 6-S-322 "Stars and Stripes" (1939).   Rare very collectable nicely styled Zenith Model 6-S-322 Stars and Stripes six-tube AM+2SW bands radio. Fully restored with all brand new electrolytic capacitors and other components, and tubes as needed. A new power cord, audio input, safety fuse, and antenna added. Nice style, and lighted dial with brass bezel, and station switched. What a nice clear audio sound this radio produces. The cabinet has been refurbished with a nice "piano" lacquer finish. The grille cloth is new. The reception is real good on all bands. 20"W x 11-1/2"H x 8-1/2"D. Weight about 10 lbs. Shipping cost to be determined at sale. Domestic only.  Lenny Bickford.   E-mail: radiomannh@radioattic.com  $795.00.  (0000044)

Zenith 6-S-528 (1941).   Zenith cranked out a lot of radios with this basic chassis in them. For some reason, the smaller 6S527 is much more common. This one had a previous refinish job that was a little less than perfect, but I didn't want to strip it and lose the woodgrain pinstripes, so I doctored it up the best I could and put eight coats of lacquer over it. The result is a nice slick finish and a fairly good looking and good performing radio. The tint is a little darker at the bottom front, but not as bad as the camera made it look. The speaker has one patch by a previous servicer, but sounds very good. A full set of high testing tubes, all new caps, including stuffing the electrolytic, resistors as necessary and replaced most of the rubber wiring. After alignment, it receives Broadcast fairly well on the internal "wave magnet" antenna. There are screw terminals for shortwave and more distant stations. Remember the old Zenith slogan? "The quality goes in before the name goes on." 16"W x 8-3/4"H x 7-1/2"D.  Mike Boessen.   E-mail: mboessen@ktis.net   ON SALE - was $299.00, now $259.00.  (0000089)

The main body of the cabinet is wooden and has been refinished in a semi-gloss lacquer. Plays like new and has sensitive reception on the AM band. 16"W x 10"H x 7"D.  Jeff Moreland.   E-mail: metroman97@gmail.com  $129.00.  (0000118)
