Emerson A-148 (1937)
(wood tube table radio w/Ingraham cabinet)

Emerson A-148 (1937)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Emerson made a lot of radios...hundreds of models...and every once and a while one pops up I've never seen, or just a pic every now and then. This A-148 is one of those radios. A totally unique cabinet produced by Ingraham Clock Company, this rare set actually was advertised as a desk set in two sizes, this being the larger one. We could find no listing either at the Radio Museum or Riders sites. The A-148 is a six-tube, AM only AC/DC radio. All of the capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. The radio performs well across the dial. The radio is finished in a beautiful satin lacquer sheen. The knobs, chassis and speaker are original, and it has a crystal-clear dial cover from Mark Palmquist. There are only a few of these radios that are known to exist, so now is the time to add this one to your collection! 11"H x 13-1/2"W x 10-1/2"D.
