(1550135)Īdmiral Radio and Phonograph Model and Chassis Index (Book) This Model & Chassis index #S1201 covers all Admiral Radio and phonograph model chassis prefixed by the letter "Y" that were introduced during the years 1959 to July 1967. Internal loop antenna for reception but adding an external antenna makes the sensitivity in this radio come to life.
The color patterns molded in the Bakelite were too good to be hidden with paint. The Bakelite cabinet was badly faded so I coated it with a clear automotive quality urethane. (9590001)Īdmiral 4201-B6 (1941) (Bakelite tube table radio) The six-tube chassis in this 1941 Admiral has had all electrolytic and wax capacitors changed, resistors checked and alignment peaked. This radio needs 12 volts, and has a clean battery case that requires 8 "C" batteries (not included). There are no cracks, dents, or chips in the radio. This radio is housed in a vinyl covered metal case, and has a movable directional antenna in the handle. The audio is clear, but may be a bit low. I was able to receive lots of AM broadcast stations across the entire band. (1720044)Īdmiral 227 (1957) SOLD! (Metal transistor shirtpocket radio) Vintage Admiral model 227 six-transistor radio. (1150797)Īdmiral 5T (Plaskon transistor shirtpocket radio) Five-transistor radio, takes 9V battery. A wonderful example of a Retro 50's radio. The Admiral name on front is in good condition. The plastic covered handle is in good condition. The radio is playing strongly and clearly, picking up all my local AM stations with no problem. The maroon plastic case has no major cosmetic issues, just a few scratches and rubs.
Very clever, and unlike any radio made before or since. You turn the radio off by closing the dial down into the case. When you push the button down on the right top, the dial and red dial pointer spring up, and the radio turns on.
(1750102)Īdmiral 4R12 "Roll Up Dial" Portable (1950) (Plastic tube portable radio) This Admiral Retro portable set from 1950 is one of the most unusual and ingenious radios ever made. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. The chassis is complete but sold "as-is" and "non-working" so if you’re one of the very few who play your Catalins, please have it restored by a qualified technician prior to use. This is truly a spectacular example of this radio that would be an incredible addition to any collection. The radio retains the original manufacturer's sticker affixed to the cabinet bottom. The grill cloth and dial glass are original as are the five butterscotch vertical grille bars and three butterscotch pinwheel knobs, all of which are in mint condition. The cabinet has no cracks, chips, hairlines, tube burns or repairs. Here is an all-original Addison Model 5 Catalin radio in a dark green/ebony cabinet with spectacular yellow/gold/green marbleizing and a gorgeous deep shine.

This radio performs really very well I was surprised how well it does sound and how many stations it receives. Tubes have all been checked on my checker. It has been electronically restored with all old capacitors replaced with new and new filters too, so there's no hum. It might have been made as a prize gift for someone perhaps, as I have searched and cant find another like it.
