Crosley 54 "Buddy Boy" (1931)
(wood tube cathedral radio)

Crosley 54 "Buddy Boy" (1931)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Here we have the second Crosley "Buddy Boy" radio. This is referred to as the "round top" or cathedral version. The one we just sold was the tombstone or "flat top" version. The unique feature of these radios are the repwood moldings. This is a mixture of sawdust and tar and pressed into a mold, resembling hand carving. This five-tube, AM only set's cabinet is in great, original condition. Blake replaced all of the capacitors. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. A new power cord was installed, and an alignment was performed. The cabinet is original with no cracks or repairs. The set retains the original knobs and speakers. A really nice example of the round top Crosley "Buddy Boy" 17"H x 15-1/2"W x 10"D.
