THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD! |
Founded in 1886 in Germany, Robert Bosch built a plant in 1911 in Springfield, MA. By 1920 they had 3,000 workers manufacturing 50% of all the electrical parts for the automobile industry. During the war, Bosch magnetos were used in basically every ship and plane. Bosch products were made to a very high standard technically and aesthetically, and their radios were no exception. The 430-T is a five-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new cloth-covered power cord, audio input and safety fuse were installed. This radio had very good sensitivity and volume, picking up stations all across the dial. Gary stripped this gorgeous cabinet and refinished it to a beautiful "piano" finish. The Quilted Maple inlay on the front of the set is stunning! The original knobs and chassis are with the set, and we supplied a replacement speaker. This is a perfect example of a hard-to-find American Bosch radio. A great set and conversation piece for your collection! 18-1/4"H x 15-1/2"W x 8-1/2"D. |
