Emerson CL-256 "Stradivarius" (1939)
(wood tube table radio w/Ingraham cabinet)

Emerson CL-256 "Stradivarius" (1939)

NEW!Perhaps one of the most beautiful and identifiable Ingraham cabinets is the violin-shaped "Stradivarius" manufactured in 1939 for Emerson. The Emerson "Strads" came in three models: the Walnut version with a square dial that is slightly larger that the Walnut version with the "D" shape dial. This is the third offering by Emerson, the "D" shaped dial with a cabinet made with Quilted Maple veneers. These cabinets were made for Emerson by the famous E. Ingraham Clock Manufacturing Company of Bristow, Connecticut. The "Strad" is a five-tube, AM only, AC/DC radio. It's all about the cabinet folks, but this radio performs very well too. All of the capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse and antenna lead were added. I can't say enough about the Gary Marvin refinish on this radio! If you're fortunate enough to own a radio refinished by this master, consider yourself lucky! This is one of the best examples of this radio you will ever find. The original knobs, speaker and chassis are with the set. The dial cover is crystal-clear. All the boxes are checked with this radio. You don't see the Quilted Maple version very often, and in this condition...never! 11"W x 6"H x 5-1/2"D.  $1,495.00. (1600579)
