Stewart-Warner 102A "The Apartment" (1932)
(wood tube cathedral radio)

Stewart-Warner 102A "The Apartment" (1932)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

The Chicago-based Stewart-Warner Corp. began producing speedometers and many other automotive parts in 1912. They started radio production in 1925 and by 1926 were producing 1000 radios a day. The model 102A was manufactured in 1931 and carried over to 1932. This six-tube, AM-only radio has a beautiful cathedral design and competed well with the iconic Philco 90. It has great sensitivity and produces a lot of volume through the original 8-inch speaker. We went through the radio replacing all of the capacitors, resistors and tubes checked and replaced where needed. A safety fuse was added. An external cable is not available on this radio. Gary stripped and refinished the radio to a beautiful semi-gloss. The dome of this radio is solid wood and not bent veneer as found on most cathedrals. The dial scale and speaker cloth are reproductions of the originals. The knobs, chassis and speaker are all original. A rare and stunning radio for your collection. 19"H x 14"W x 11-1/2"D.
