Another Great Vintage Radio Sale

Auction Details

You are in for a real treat with this sale. We have combined the second half of the Bob Diggs 40+ year collection with the sale of Gilbert Hedge's awesome early Zenith and 20's portable radio collection. Mr. Hedge displays his excellent restoration skills in this sale. He is the author of the popular book "The Early Zenith Radios". Many of the radios in this sale are actually shown in this book.
The auction company has made an attempt to verify the working status of items that could be safely tested. However, all items are sold as is where is. Again, if you have specific requests to verify condition of any particular item and/or quality of a tube, contact the auctioneer directly at the number given elsewhere.
