GLAYZIT Bakelite cleaner and polish
|
item #238
|
New packaging, same product. This is the most amazing product I have used on my bakelite radios. Once you have cleaned the case simply spray on GLAYZIT and wipe off. It restores the original luster and color leaving a hard gloss dust resistant finish (if you leave it on for 24 hrs the shine is unbelievable). I have tried everything and this stuff is amazing. Works on plastic too.

Emerson 157
|
item #992
|
This is a beautiful Emerson Model 157 in a plaskon cabinet. There are no cracks or hairlines in the two tone case making this a perfect example of this radio. The radio is in working condition but there is a little scratchiness when you tune to the lower frequencies so the tuning condensor should be cleaned and adjusted. It looks great when you turn it on and see the red pilot lamp in the middle of the Emerson logo glowing through the plaskon cabinet. This radio features the old style shouldered tubes and its original resistance line cord which is also unusual as these are almost always bad. What a gorgeous radio to display and add to your collection..

Silvertone 6165
|
item #991
|
This is a midget Silvertone Model 6165 radio. This one is in excellent condition. The cabinet is shiny and free of damage. The radio is working but has its original components. I think it will work better after some of the original parts (electrolytics, maybe some paper caps) are replaced. The power cord was replaced by a cotton covered reproduction of the original and the antenna wire was also replaced. The dial has some slight loss of the gold filler used to make the stations frequencies stand out and also has a tiny hairline. I am still grading this as excellent condition despite these tiny flaws. A great midget radio to add to your collection and one that is highly prized by collectors.

Airline 04BR511
|
item #990
|
This is a very small Airline Model 04BR511 radio from 1940. The bakelite cabinet is in great condition. There is a small amount of light rust on the chassis as seen from the back picture and that is the only thing keeping this from being graded as excellent (you could eaily shine it up with some steel wool but I am leaving it as found). The radio is playing fine (you need to connect an antenna to the terminal on the back). The original knobs and dial are in excellent condition, and the original back metal cover is present. A very collectible radio.

Airline 62-325
|
item #987
|
This is a very deco looking Wards Airline Model 62-325 radio from 1937. The bakelite case has a nice shine and looks great until you look on the bottom - there is a piece of bakelite missing. Fortunately it is on the bottom side and not the middle which is where the original label is located and still fully intact. For display purposes it is totally hidden. This is also repairable if you want to go the extra mile. The chassis has new electrolytics and is in working order. Original; knobs, dial plastic, dial, and back are in excellent condition. Even with the "hidden" damage this is still a great radio for the price (book value is over $100).

Philco 39-7
|
item #984
|
Very nice looking Philco Model 39-7 from 1939. Wood case is solid with no missing veneer and original finish is in good shape. Only issues are on the top - two small areas where the veneer looks dented and two scratches across the top (one is faint and may buff out) but the other has gone through the lacquer finish. You can clearly see these areas in the pictures. I tried to power up the radio but got a smell of burning insulation at about 60 volts so I am sure the electrolytics need changing as they probably have shorted out. The dial plastic and dial, knobs, pushbuttons, and grille cloth are all in good shape and everything on the radio looks original including all the proper labels. Should be a very presentable radio once restored.

|
item #983
|
Westinghouse Model H486T5. Plaskon case has marks/scratches and several hairlines (look at second picture for the one on top) and a minor crack on 3 grill bars in back. You can usually buff out plaskon but not sure about hailines but they can be bleached to make them less noticeable. This radio features a copper chassis and is solidly built, and in working condition (radio and clock). Brass faceplate, radio and clock knobs in decent shape. Full label on bottom. ON HOLD

Zenith L520W Clock Radio
|
item #982
|
Zenith Model L520W clock radio. Painted bakelite case dirty but should clean up. No cracks in case but bottom screw holes that hold back in place are chipped (cannot see from outside). Brass surrounding clock face and radio dial in decent condition (maybe some polishing would help). Radio powers up and works fine (no surprise for a Zenith). Clock works too. Original clock and radio knobs and full label on bottom. Worth restoring at this price.
