Literally from the dawn of the broadcast radio era, this listing is for an antique original de Forest Crosley model 51 in good condition, as pictured. This 2 tube TRF radio was manufactured in 1924 by de Forest Radio Corporation in Toronto, Canada. While these were sold across Canada, this particular radio was sold by Canada West Electric Ltd. in Regina, Sask.


Overall, the radio has aged nicely. Minor issues include some discoloration on the face plate and several missing screws. Although tubes are not included, it looks as though the components on the inside are present and in decent shape.


This is a great opportunity to acquire a highly collectible early radio!
