Question About Wards Airline Radio
#1

I recently became the owner of a 1933 Wards Airline model 62-101 console AM only radio a friend purchased at an estate sale in Ann Arbor MI. It uses an 80 rectifier, type 56's and 58's and p-p type 45's.

I'm just wondering if anyone knows who manufactured this radio for Montgomery Wards. I don't have pictures yet but the cabinet has only a few nicks and scratches. The finish on it looks almost new, all of it is solid and it had been in the same family for 80 years. Thanks in advance.

Mike
