RCA 56X5 (1946)
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

RCA 56X5 (1946)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

A popular post-war RCA that sold in large numbers because of its sturdy construction, clean sleek lines, and powerhouse performance. This exceptional six-tube set has been gone through with all new filter and paper capacitors, strong tested set of tubes, controls cleaned and lubricated. It plays loud and clear across the AM band with its built-in loop antenna, easily receiving all of my local stations. The cabinet finish is all original with a few minor age-related blemishes and dings consistent with a nearly 80-year-old set. Beautiful large and bold glass dial scale with the "Little Nipper" logo that looks great in a darkened room. Features a two-position tone control for Treble & Bass. AM/SW (couldn't get much of anything on shortwave but these work best on a clear night with an external antenna). Budget priced for those seeking an entry level example of radio's golden age. 15"W x 8"H x 8"D.
