    Description

    When I pulled this out of the box, I had a sense of "time capsule" as this thing looked like it had been stored in a sealed container for the last 100 years ( a true antique by the dictionary definition!). I was hoping it would be made to play. My hopes were dashed when I opened it up to find that the two transformers inside had been eaten by rodents, likely 90m years or so ago. Well, I cleaned up the rodent leftovers - the inside is now very clean but, unless you have, or can find the special transformers, this cannot be made to play. It is a display piece.
    PS: Can you see how the critter got in?
    This listing is for
    a
    Westinghouse RA/DA True Antique Radio.
    It is a true antique, being 100 years old.
    It is breathtaking to look at at this age but, as mentioned above, cannot be made to work.
    The three tubes are good, and you can apply voltage to see the front two of them glow through the screen. The filament wire to the back one is also chewed away. This could be fixed.
    This is 100% guaranteed to be as described.
    I am happy to answer your questions to the best of my ability.
