My Vintage Radio and Bed Frame

[The Lonely Navigator]

These are my two big vintage items - unfortunately in storage at the moment.

Montgomery Ward's Airline Superheterodyne Console Radio (Inherited it.)

Metal Bed Frame (Bought for $15 from a woman who just wanted to get rid of it.)

If anyone knows more on the radio, please inform me. Thanks in advance for the information.

Sorry if the photos are too big.

Hello,

Well...the radio is from 1935, I learned from getting help from the nostalgia air website.

They also supplied me with information on the schematics.

Thanks,

Prien

You're welcome. Let us know what you hear when you get it up and running (like, Amelia Earhardt?)*


* I've been getting an AM station from about 500 miles south of me in the morning.

I have 2 beds like that, that I have been saving for years to send with my kids when they go off to collegelol Now, that's a packrat.

I much rather like that bed frame because it is light, and easy to disassemble and reassemble.

It has a few dents in it, but I'm fond of the 'aged' look to it. I guess I'm not the type to like things looking 'too new'.
