VINTAGE PHILIPS MODEL BZ126A VALVE TUBE RADIO IN BROWN BAKELITE CASE

On offer is a fully restored early 1950s  PHILIPS MODEL BZ126A Bakelite tube / valve radio.

The case is in a very good condition without any cracks, repairs or major scratches.

The casing displays that pretty brown, mottled Bakelite shine; it is still a very attractive unit.

During the day I managed to tune to some 16 local stations using a 2.5 m wire as antenna. For buyers' safety I have already run this radio for over three weeks with no problems whatsoever.

The radio plays very clean and loud.

In addition I installed a three core power cord with a contemporary bakelite plug so no earthing is needed.

Finally, this radio tunes to the broadcast ~ 500-1,600 kHz, I guess, with a longer antenna wire one could do much better than that.

When considering vintage tube radios the potential buyer must realize that these items are very delicate electromechanical devices often being 60 or 80 years old; so no guaranty of any kind can be offered, as such, for argument sake, I sell this radio as it is now.
