Emerson 504 (1946)

Emerson was an adventurous company in terms of cabinet design. Here we see a variant of a Raymond Lowe design with a molded Lucite sloping grille: a feature which showcased the capability of a new material and would have been very striking at the time. Combined with the stamped brass turquoise dial, this design still looks fresh and futuristic today. The rest of the walnut veneered cabinet is in very nice condition. The finish doesn't look new, but whether it is original, or a very skillful refinish done far in the past I cannot tell. Another nice feature of this cabinet is the molded back cover; this one has a chip in a lower corner, but you have to look twice to notice it. The All American Five chassis has been fully restored and works like new, with all paper and electrolytic capacitors replaced, a strong set of tubes, and a careful alignment. A new polarized power cord has been installed and the power switch wiring modified for improved safety. Use this radio to receive AM broadcasts as designed, or order it with my Better Bluetooth to play your own program material through the radio's tube amplifier circuitry. Lighted dial. Shipping only $25 to 48 states. 11-1/4"W x 9"H x 6-1/2"D.  $175.00. (1310200)
