.jpg "Automatic \"Tom Thumb\" Unknown (1938)") |
 Here is a great looking tiny midget set from approx. 1938. Model unknown tho it looks similar to the 950 & points to same era. It is all original, including the speaker grille cloth, dial and dial cover, knobs, etc as well as little wooden ornate feet. It has been refinished nicely at some point with the Tom Thumb logo intact. This radio is made by Automatic Radio Manufacturing Co. of Boston, Mass. The company begun in 1920 and is still in business today. It is most famous for producing the Tom Thumb radios in the late thirties. I believe this little Deco model of the Tom Thumb is one of the rarest. I can find no information on this particular model, not even a picture. It plays with the antenna wire attached picking up my local stations, tho I would not call it a strong player. Automatic Radio is also well known for producing after market car radios. A first for the Radio Attic so don't miss out. a must have to complete a Tom Thumb collection. 8"W x 5-3/4"H x 4-1/4"D. $425.00. (1640347)
