Zenith 6-D-311 (1939)
(Bakelite tube table radio)

Zenith 6-D-311 (1939)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!
A ONE-DAY WONDER!

Zenith created a very stylish "masterpiece in Bakelite" with this radio. It features a right front half round dial, left horizontal wrap-around louvers & waterfall opposite end, brass escutcheon & "Z" knob as well as a nice Retro-Tronics replacement back on the set. Notice the curved gold dial virtually matches the curved cabinet side, big dial pointer, clear dial lens to better see that beautiful lighted dial at night. It really has "pizzaz." Also nice clean, rust free chassis. An absolutely amazing Zenith with such Art Deco design. The case is in wonderful condition, without any significant cosmetic issues, designed by Robert Budlong, one of Zenith's most prolific design engineers. I have had more than one of these over the years & have seen many others, but this one of the nicer ones I have ever had. The factory stamp is still on bottom of set & shows very little wear. The electronics have been completely restored and it plays very nicely on the AM broadcast band, picking up all my local stations & beyond with just the short antenna wire. Nice selectivity & sensitivity! The radio is an excellent example of this iconic model. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. 10-1/2"W x 6-1/2"H x 6"D.
