This Stewart-Warner "Senior Varsity" is a great blend of Deco and Machine Age design. It was marketed toward college students, often painted in school colors, as well as brown Bakelite, ivory Plaskon, and ivory painted Bakelite. This radio has been completely restored inside and out to a beautiful condition. The cabinet is a gloss cream repaint and is/was completely undamaged prior to paint. The chassis is a five-tube (AA5) superhet and has been completely restored as per my shop specs listed on my Attic. The radio plays fine, picking up all my local AM stations just utilizing its internal antenna. I have also added a long wire antenna for help in picking up those distant stations. A reproduction dial, reproduction back and reproduction dial cloth round out this restoration. I also added four new rubber feet. This one also has an aux input for listening to your favorite non-AM songs. I put a little extra effort into this one during the restoration process and it shows. The knobs and pushbuttons are in perfect condition. As with all of my radios, I can send additional pictures if requested and as always, reasonable offers will be considered. About 13"W x 7-1/2"H x 7-1/2"D. This radio weighs in at 6 lbs. 14 oz. prior to packing for shipment. $400.00. (1870020)
