Firestone 3061 "Air Chief" (1938)
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

Firestone 3061 "Air Chief" (1938)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Firestone radios have always been one of my favorites. They were high quality sets made by Stewart Warner, Emerson, Belmont and others. Their cabinets had that same high quality, with several being designed and made by Ingraham. They started selling radios in 1940 after getting the brand "Air Chief" patented. The 3061 is a six-tube, three-band (AM,SW,police) set. The capacitors were all replaced with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. A new power cord, safety fuse, antenna lead and audio input were installed. This radio is a strong performer with great sensitivity across the dial. The Walnut cabinet was stripped and refinished. The gorgeous lacquer "piano" finish makes these radios look better than new. The original knobs, speaker and chassis are present. The large, original multi-colored dial is in excellent condition. This Firestone is a bit rare, so here's an opportunity to fill out your Firestone collection, or just a fantastic radio to show and enjoy! 17"W x 11"H x 10"D.
