Emerson CW-279 (1939)
(Plaskon tube table radio)

Emerson CW-279 (1939)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

This is simply an immaculate, all-original 1939 radio in a rare dark green Plaskon cabinet that hasn't a single blemish on it. Very few of these colored Plaskon sets seem to have survived over the years, let alone this variant. A sister model without the pushbuttons, the EP-381, came in four colors but not this dark green. All moving parts including its pushbutton tuning assembly have been cleaned and lubed, all caps and weak tubes have been replaced, and the cabinet and dial marker have been hand polished and detailed. The radio was aligned, peaked and tuned for optimal reception and sound quality. With the help of the external antenna provided, it's quite sensitive and picking up all of my local AM stations across the dial. All-original except for its correct replacement back panel. Ready to display and play! Another great radio from my personal smoke-free collection. About 9-1/4"W x 5-1/4"H x 4-1/2"D.
