UPDATE: radio failed testing after two days running..  Up for bid is a 1950’s vintage Zenith tabletop tube radio. The radio looks really nice for its age and appears to be in decent shape. There is some finger wear around the knobs. The Wave-Magnet and harness is intact/functional but wrinkly. (Get’s hot back there.) The power cord is a hazard. I run it with the back panel down. The radio does work well and sounds very good during a days/week-long performance test. The signals come in very clear. After some testing, I switch antennas to my long wire ham antenna. This radio turned into a true DX’er! (Very sensitive-I recommend, 15  stations heard!) The radio played well across the dial. I run it on a Variac at 105VAC for some time while it played. I then switch to 117 VAC line cord. (I do a days/week-long test on all my vintage electronics.) Lucky thing I like AM radio! Yes, I do clean my radios. The measurements are (approximately) 12.75" L x7.25" W x 7.835" H. I am open for all questions. I do professional packing for free. (I ship antiques) Shipping is $38, much bubble wrap for radio chassis safety. Insides are packed tight with bubble wrap. I return over ship money.  No warranty implied or offered.Three day pay. No overseas please. Thank you for viewing my auction.

UPDATE: Radio played perfect for three days then quit. I am pretty sure the main DC capacitor shorted , popped the 5 amp fuse in variac. No DC power on chassis.
