THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Willard radios were manufactured in the Gilfillan factory in Los Angeles. This particular radio resembles the cabinet of the Jackson Bell Peter Pan, and the chassis is identical to the Jackson Bell model 84. It has been mentioned that they were built right on the Jackson Bell assembly line. Some refer to this radio as a Pee-Wee Cathedral. This Willard is a four-tube, AM only radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse and antenna lead were installed. Gary did a wonderful job refinishing the radio. Nice use of toner and shadowing really gives the radio a factory look. The original knobs, speaker and chassis are with the set. We use the word "rare" a lot, but Willard radios exemplify it. We know of two styles and neither of them have model numbers. 11"H x 9-1/2"W x 8-1/2"D.
