General Electric E-106 10 Tube Radio
This was a gift from my brother back in 1990 and it did work. Needs a new plug and cord before I will use it. I will do this last of all. Hasn't been turned on since the day I got it just to see if it would work. It did work beautifully. The radio was on about 3 minutes or less. The light in the dial worked too. |
Watermark On The Top
Quite a big spot ! Not sure if the whole veneer top will peel off with some heat or not. |

SPEAKER AND TRANSFORMER
The Speaker Is In Good Shape But, Not Sure If The Transformer Put Out What Its Suppose To. I Just Got A New Multimeter To Check Out The Circuts. I Also Just Purchased A Surperior TW-11 Tube Tester But, Hasn't Come In The Mail Yet. |
THE GRILL CLOTH IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE
Checking out the grill cloth its in great shape ! Being from 1938 there is no tears at all in this material. Not really sure if it was changed before we got it in 1990.
