Westinghouse WR-23 Tombstone (1935)
(wood tube tombstone radio)

Westinghouse WR-23 Tombstone (1935)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

You are looking at a powerhouse. The Westinghouse radios are not common, but were very well made and this particular model is a powerful seven-tube super-het. The condition is all original, with a nice speaker cloth and fancy lathed wooden knobs. The finish is equally nice with no veneer issues. The radio does have two hairline cracks by the speaker posts due to the shrinkage of the wood as the set is now 79+ years old. My tech has done his usual repairs, replacing the filter caps on the power supply, condensers and any resistors out of value. With his alignment of the IF's, the radio tunes accurately. Added is a safe new reproduction silk/cotton power cord and reproduction Bakelite plug for your safe use. 18"H x 15-3/4"W x 10"D.
