This is the last one I did for this summer. It is too chilly to do any refinishing right now.
It is a 1937 Westinghouse model 1029. This is the third one of these I have owned.
The grill cloth configuration is all original and quite different.

I recapped the chassis and it was working good until I put it in the cabinet.
Then it would just quit. So I took it out and found there was a cold solder from a previous owner.
Once it was fixed the radio plays very good.
