1934/35 Zenith Model 808 Vacuum Tube Antique Radio - GORGEOUS & Working
This is perhaps one of the prettiest table top “tombstone” tube radios ever made. The woodwork on the cabinet is intricate and features all real wood inlays — no photofinish coverings. The radio is a 6-tube AC-powered model, one of Zenith’s premier sets for model year 1934 or 1935. Cosmetically this radio is in outstanding condition. The finish is so smooth and bright that it’s almost mirror-like. What looks like ripples in the finish in some photos is actually reflections of marks on my white cardboard background. I do not know if the finish is original, but if not it was refinished extremely skillfully. The knobs are reproductions. I bought this radio about a dozen years ago and have not done any work on it except to attach a long wire antenna. It’s been a rarely played “shelf queen” and I’ve never even pulled the chassis out of the cabinet, so I cannot say whether it has been restored electrically except that the cord is new. There is some motorboating between stations, but none when tuned in. As with all antique radios, if you intend to play it regularly the nearly 90-year-old capacitors should be replaced (if they haven’t already been). I have been collecting and restoring vintage radios and TV’s for more than thirty years. Please see my other listings for more vintage electronics items. I don’t have a lot of silly rules for buyers: Pay for your item and I’ll send it you. I’ll trust you and you can trust me to do right. In response to a question, the size of this radio is 17 inches tall by 12 inches wide by 9 inches deep.

This is a 1936 Zenith 12-U-159 antique radio. It is a massive 12 tube chassis with a large black dial with colored frequency ranges. It appears to have been restored and is in working condition. I have not looked under the chassis, but there is a fuse on the radio now, which is not original, so it’s very likely that it has been restored some years ago. I personally have owned this radio for about 5 years and it has received many compliments. Please note, the tweeter speaker does not appear to be original. Whoever restored it put a different tweeter and taped a home-made cover over it to give it somewhat correct appearance. I personally have used UShip several times and would recommend them.

For sale is a 1937 Zenith 10-S-130 antique tube radio. The radio appears to be complete and mostly original with a prior restoration to the chassis electronics. Overall, the cabinet and veneers are in excellent shape with just the typical wear from an 80+ year old radio. The chassis is also in good shape and the celluloid dials are not cracked — pictures shows incomplete tube set, but they are in a bag along with all shields and will be included. The original cord looks to have been replaced with a chassis restoration (see photos). The speaker has the correct part number specifically for this model. Please review all the photos as it clearly shows the condition of this fine radio. I displayed the radio as-is on the shelf for the last 15 years this would make an excellent restoration project If you wish to make a full restoration. I will also include an exact reproduction piece of grill cloth in case you do decide to restore the radio.
