Ancient FM wonder

This radio matches the kitchen in my 1961 ranch home perfectly. Gorgeous color with lots of shiny stuff on the front. And with FM! It arrived thoroughly packed, but it didn’t work right out of the box. I pulled the back panel and reinserted a couple [...]

Who needs a stereo

The RCA Victor is as clear as the masters voice and has a richness of sound only the most expensive speakers have today. I now prefer to listen to my music thru the bluetooth on this radio.

Hi,

Just a quick note to thank you for the 1939 RCA Victor 
Model 45-X-11 AM radio that was delivered yesterday to my 
home in Massachusetts. I have it in my office and within a 
day it's already become a heirloom. :-). I have it tuned 
to a Boston jazz station which fits well with its character. 
I can't believe how old it is and how nice this thing looks.

I tried to get a couple of tube radios from eBay and 
what I ended up with was one buzzing and freakishly hot running 
mess and another so poorly serviced that I had to cut the 
cord off since it was an electrical hazard. 
"Poor man always pays twice" and "you get what you pay for" 
as they say! The quality of your updates is evident in how 
clean the servicing was on the radio and how well it plays.

Also, I want to tell you that the entire buying experience 
was wonderful. From photos of the radios to the description 
to the ordering process to the follow up on items to the 
order placement and delivery. I couldn't ask for a better 
experience in all aspects of the purchase!

Regards,

****************************************************************************************

    5 out of 5 starsI ordered the Bluetooth upgrade making a 1940’s radio work with new technology and I could not be more pleased. It’s pretty cool to play music from the 21st century on a nearly 75yo radio. Thrilled I went ahead with that option. So fun!

    5 out of 5 starsI absolutely LOVE this clock radio. And even more so, the fact that it is nearly twice my age, in its original condition, and still works. I’m a huge fan of vintage, antique stuff. I’m not that old but have always felt the quality of goods has declined over the years so the most durable, well-built products are from decades ago. Fast shipping and impeccable packaging. Thank you!

      I want to advise you that I received my beautiful radio in perfect state yesterday. I’m very pleased with it and it looks so great in my dining room. And it’s working fine for a radio that age ( same age as me)

      Love this GE Radio. Had one in mint shape and thought I would never find another in this clean mint condition!


      Thank you for the offering and thank you Etsy for providing the tools to find another one!

      It will have a well protected life with it's new owner and will be added to my personal radio collection and display cabinet.

      I knew something was missing in our newly remodeled room and we just found the last perfect piece...this vintage 60`s radio/clock is the icing on the cake. What a classy look, wonderful way to finish it off. Fast shipping, great sound from the am radio, wonderful backlight from the clock radio.....100% satisfied. This was my 2nd purchase, there will be more.

      Found on Feb 2/10 from earlier given:

      I've purchased two pink clock radios, made in 1959! Yeah, they were expensive, but I love them both! I've discovered two different A.M. stations on them; On one I listen to Rev. Al Sharpton's radio program (And I'm an old white man - Black Lives Mattet!! - ) On the other one I listen to a Black Gospel Music Station!! I'm loving it!! Thank you Retro Radio Farm!!😊❤
