Pretty in Pink 1959 Sonic Model 5C1 Vacuum Tube AM Clock Radio Excellent Condition! Rare Manufacturer and Model!

DESCRIPTION: Tabletop tube AM clock alarm radio manufactured by Sonic in the 1959 in excellent physical and fair working condition. These smaller obscure off-brand radios with cool 50s looks and colors are extremely sought after for their rarity and collectibility.

SOUND QUALITY: This is a 5 tube 1 transformer design so frequency reception is not as good as 5 tube 2 transformer designs. Picks up AM stations clearly and loudly if signal is strong. But, performance is better than 4 tube 1 transformer designs.

CABINET CONDITION: Cabinet is original factory shiny molded in pink. All original factory molded colors through and through. No repaints no touch-ups no over sprays. No cracks, chips, or major scratches or missing pieces.  The front clock clear cover is transparent with no cracks, chips or hazing. 

KNOBS: Factory original volume and tuning knobs are securely attached. Not missing gold metal center inserts. The tuning dial works fine. No cracked posts. Original factory matching two black clock function knobs.

LOGO: No missing logos

DIAL LIGHT: NO clock or tuning dial light. Not designed with one, but can be added for an extra charge.

CLOCK: Clock works and keeps accurate time. Clock motor is silent. Clock and alarm set functions work. Sleep function works. Wake to radio alarm works. No alarm buzzer. Not designed with one.

INTERNAL ELECTRONICS: All paper and wax capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents so this radio has another 50+ years or more of playing time! The tubes are working fine. Single stage Intermediate Frequency Transformer (IFT) has been rebuilt to ensure static free performance.  All out-of-spec resistors have been replaced with modern correct value and voltage equivalents. There is no loud or pervasive hum. There is no loud or pervasive static between stations. The set has been aligned according to factory specifications. All wiring has been thoroughly checked for possible bridging and weak solder connection. The radio has been thoroughly cleaned and inspected.

POWER CORD: The original power cord and plug are good original working condition with no cracks, or splits. No exposed wiring. 

BACKING BOARD: Original backing board is intact securely attached legible printing.

FACTORY LABELS AND STICKERS: No missing bottom factory label is missing.

PROVENANCE: Was gently used then stored in a dry cool environment for a long period of time. No evidence of prolonged exposure to moisture, smoking, cooking grease, pets or carpet.
