1929 magnavox speaker restore
#1

This speaker cabinet that nobody seemed to care for fell in my hands Saturday, a little voice in my head said (get it) (get it ) and boy sure am glad I did. This is a blast from the past is a rare or very seldom seen Arisacat speaker from Magnavox, some say that's is original color scheme that was popular in the late twenties but no proof of that. I didn't care for the color but what lay beneath is beautiful mahogany , booked matched in all. I don't have a radio to complement the speaker but that could change, I did pick up a radiola 60 that mite work? This mag speaker has a separate out put trans former that's plugs into wall and the other wires go to radio. Don't know much about those but Dick Morgan will help me out there in that dept. Wanted to show you guys the  restoration progress
