Found with original finish, un-touched. Only a very light cleaning. As of 2022, still in use and working great. One of my favorite radios. Similar to PMU51-417 103A model.

Wood cabinet has many dings and scratches. Could be a canidate for re-finishing. Knobs don`t look original, too high for such a small radio. Radio works fine, not serviced.

Very cool looking vintage burgundy bakelite radio with ivory knobs from the 50s. This radio has not been repaired and does not power on. The case is in very good condition for its age. There is a small crack and the bright in the center on the knob has fallen out. Back missing. Needs re-capping and cord. Tubes tested good.

The cabinet has only a few tiny marks to its finish, not warranting refinishing, a rarity. The grill cloth needs to be replaced. All tubes test good.

This is one very large radio. Needs a lot of tender lovimg restoration, as the finish is crackle.

High Fidelity 12-watt integrated Monaural tube amplifier. Have the matching FM tuner HFT-90. Kit was built in the 60s by my neighbour and gifted to me when he moved away.

This is the matching Eico HFT-90 Monaural FM tuner. Really cool miniature vacuum tube dial pointer that varies the height of its lighted area based on the strength of the received signal. Definitely a unique use of a vacuum tube. Needs a good antenna. Have the matching mono amplifier HF-12.

Originally, I bought this radio just for the tubes. Was inexpensive. Output transformer was open. All resistors and capacitors were out of spec. The tubes got used in another radio. Totally gutted the radio. Ive now added add a bluetooth receiver and amplifier to play Oldies Big Band music.

NEW FIND! A five-tube All-American miniature tube radio (AA5). No cord or antenna wire. Refinished case. Small corner loose veneer. Standby, more info to come. On the bench being serviced. Dial looks warped, might need to make a new one.
