DESCRIPTION: Tabletop tube Clock AM radio manufactured by Admiral Co. in1959 in excellent+ working condition. Picks up AM stations clearly and loudly up and down the dial without need of external antenna attachment. Glossy factory molded turquoise cabinet is in excellent condition with cracks no chips and no major scratches. No repaints, touch-ups or oversprays. None needed. The front factory molded ivory grill is evenly yellowed. This radio is over 60 years old! No dial light not designed with one. The volume on/off knob is secure. The Admiral logo is partially rubbed off. The metal caps in the tuning knobs and volume knobs have not popped off or gone missing over the years which is common. The tuning dial works fine. 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. All out-of-spec resistors have been replaced with modern correct value and voltage equivalents. Replacement cord is in excellent working condition. There is no loud or pervasive hum. There is no loud or pervasive static between stations unless you operate near modern megahertz devices. The power cord and plug are good original working condition with no cracks, or splits. No exposed wiring. The radio has been thoroughly cleaned and inspected. All wiring has been thoroughly checked for possible bridging and weak solder connection. Comes from non-smoking, mature, clean professional environment no pets.
