Vintage 1940 General Television Model 526 (AM only) table radio. This is the unique wooden model with 2 knobs, 5 tubes, and a light color stain portable wooden case.
It has a unique plastic grille, handle and dial bezel. The case is solid, with no tears or rips in the wooden veneer. Dimensions: 11" w x 7" h x 5 1/2" d. Shipping weight is 7 lbs.The knobs are not the original that came with the radio.
Radio plays with good volume. Radio... has great sensitivity and selectivity. I hooked up a 2 foot wire to the antenna terminal which greatly improved the reception. I was able to pick up Seattle and San Diego stations at night. Dial light works. There is a hairline crack on the plastic border surrounding the tuning dial. It's the only imperfection I found. Please see pictures for additional description.
