If only I had space! Not only would this satisfy my 1920s Radio Fetish, but it's also a Brunswick console! Double sweet--and great sound quality to boot.
Someone out there needs to smuggle this one into the living room. Wives might pass this one up if you take the crank out...

Bump. I'll take $300 for this. I REALLY need the room. Pickup is really the only way with this. I'm right near Albany, folks, and this is not exactly a commonly found machine.

You ever tried to get the radio working Sean? My WW2 vet granddad that I never got to meet had this exact model. I would love to own one of these, but only if the radio was working or is fixable.

Peter F. told me that 1920s battery radios are the simplest radios in the world to maintain and restore. Basically they have the shelf life of an Edison phonograph--he says some of them will run without even being restored, because the components are so basic.

I've never tried getting the radio to work. Everything is there including one or two extra tubes in their boxes. Obviously the batteries are gone. This is such a neat machine, I would never be selling this if I had a bigger house.
