Majestic 381 "Treasure Chest" (1933)
(wood tube novelty radio)

Majestic 381 "Treasure Chest" (1933)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

This rare "Treasure Chest" table radio is the best example I have seen in my years of collecting. All others I have seen are missing several pieces of the repwood trim. This is complete except for a tiny piece missing on the front left where the lid closes. It has been electronically restored (one filter cap and coupling cap only), and works well, covering the broadcast (550-1700 KC) band. This is only a four tuber, so reception is limited to strong signals unless you use an outside antenna. The finish is very nice and looks to be original. The repwood gold trim finish is mostly worn off, and I thought about redoing it, but decided the next owner should have that option. Original label is intact; chassis and additional pics are available. This rare "novelty" radio would be a super addition to your collection! 11"W x 10"H x 8"D, shipping weight 14 pounds.
