This is one of this
companies first all electric console radios. This can be
cautiously classified as somewhat rare as is most Wurlitzer
radios. This is from my collection and is all original except that
I have
electronically
restored the chassis. The cabinet is in
excellent condition, the finish is original and in reasonably good
shape. That's not to say it's without some flaws as it does have
some finish crazing (mostly on the top), some minor nicks and
scratches but no gouges or deep scratches. The original tapestry
grill cloth is original and in very good condition. The chassis is
very clean and well shielded and has excellent performance.
Wurlitzer, like Grebe is one of the few early companies that had
the power transformer fused to protect it from being destroyed in
case of a short circuit, very few companies offered this,
including the "biggies" like RCA, Zenith & GE.
This is a small set,
measuring only 39" high X 23" wide & 14" deep, actual weight is 72
