THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Rare Detrola! Neat 6-1/2-inch multi-colored, brightly lit dial. Detrola made some really colorful large lighted dials, but I cannot find this one on any other model nor can I find much info on model 109 so must be one rare bird. Love those rounded waterfall ends. It just shows very well and plays equally well picking up all my locals & very clearly with lots of volume. It has been restored electronically replacing all caps & resistors & checking/replacing any weak tubes. This one should please even the most discriminate collector. Let the pictures tell the story. The only other example found was one sold previously on the Attic (this is not the same one). The dial is unique as I couldn't find it on any other model. The SB scale extends into the lower SW band, basically the police/aviation which is no longer available. The dial has the Red & Blue Network (NBC) and the Blue/Green Columbia Mutual & other broadcasting network bands. It is a five-tube, AC/DC set with extended scale dial set. 16"W x 9-1/2"H x 6-1/2"D.
