I believe I've started this before...Emerson has a couple of hundred models and most of them utilize Ingraham cabinets. A clock maker by trade, the companies cabinetry was some of the best. Their use of angles and shapes with gorgeous veneers was legendary. The BF-204 is no exception. Using Australian Laurel and Walnut veneers with some beautiful inlay work, this is a special cabinet, a restored original by Gary Marvin. The BF-204 is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse and antenna lead were added. The radio receives local stations with great tone and plenty of volume. Gary restored the original cabinet and it's gorgeous! The radio has the original knobs, chassis, speaker, dial scale and back. The dial cover is crystal clear, and the Ingraham and Emerson badging is present. A truly beautiful radio with a great price ready to be in your collection! 12-1/2"W x 8-3/4"H x 7"D. $449.00.
