(wood tube table radio w/SW)

Detrola 148 (1937)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Highly collectible & beautiful radio ready for play/display! Detrola, a Detroit based radio manufacturer, was well known for their beautifully designed cabinets and wonderful sounding radios. This certainly is one! The large, colorful dial & bright very sensitive green tuning eye really do make it special along with original knobs, dial, full wood factory back, ornate wood feet, very clean, rust free chassis etc. The dial is very Art Deco & shows the location of the period's clear channel stations, making the radio all the more interesting. The two identical grilled ends give it the appearance of dual speakers, tho only one. The chassis has been completely electronically restored and is great performer with nice warm tone with tone control & is a wonderful playing radio on both AM & SW. The radio is a seven-tuber. The cabinet is also a recent beautiful refinish & correctly toned to give it that factory "new" look. It is sure to please even the most discriminate collector. 18"W x 12"H x 9"D.
