1940 ADMIRAL ? BAKELITE TUBE RADIO - MODEL15-D5 - WORKS - READ

Description

1940.  ADMIRAL BAKELITE TUBE RADIO MODEL 15 -D5.
EXACT SAME CABINET AS THE ADMIRAL, BUT DIAL AND POINTER ARE DIFFERENT, (  IN MY OPTION, BETTER LOOKING ).
THIS MAYBE A RADIO THAT USED ANOTHER LABEL OF A CHAIN STORE - QUITE COMMON AT THE TIME.
PERFECT BAKELITE CABINET (NO CRACKS NO REPAIRS) WAS STRIPPED OF ALL OLD PAINT, PREPARED, PRIMED
AND PAINTED WITH AUTOMOTIVE LACQUER IN "INCA GOLD METALLIC". PERFECT COMPLIMENT TO THE DIAL AND
POINTED.
NEW DIAL LENSE.  HAS THE ORIGINAL PLASTICON KNOBS
BEAUTIFUL DIAL AND POINTER
ORIGINAL BACK PANEL WHICH ARE ALMOST ALWAYS LOST.
DIAL LIGHTS UP. LOAD HUM WITH PICK-UP OF ABOUT 5 LOCAL STATIONS. WHEN SHUT OFF AND PUT BACK ON, HUM IS LESS AND STATIONS ARE CLEARER.
ASSUME WILL NEED SOME WORK.
"SCREAMS DECO.... OK, SPEAKS QUITE LOUDLY- W/ HUM!
PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS AND LOOK OVER PHOTOS.
DOUBLE BOXED FOR SAFER TRANSIT.
