From my
collection and one of my favorite consoles. I hate to see this
set go but must make room for a 12-S-471 that will soon be
completed and will be added to my collection. My space is
limited so when I add a new piece, something must go.
Not an expensive set (when new it sold for 69.95) but
comprises one of Zenith's most beautiful cabinets. No faux wood
finishes on this model, the base
construction is of maple with English and American walnut,
trimmed with quilted maple on the top and top front sides, the
top and bottom side inlays that wrap around to the front are of
Australian laurel and the two vertical bars on the bottom are
inlayed with Zebra wood.
The finish on the
bottom half of this set was badly damaged by what appeared to
the scratching of a small dog. There was no damage of deep
scratches into the veneer or cabinet woodwork. Never-the-less,
the entire cabinet had to be refinished. The refinish work was
done by Gary Marvin of Springfield, OR who has done the refinish
work on a number of my radios.
The "showroom"
quality, color, finish
and remarkable woodwork on this set, is correct and just as it would have
been when this model was new. Even the velvet blue cabinet
interior finish is factory correct.
The chassis and electronics has
been meticulously restored by me and works perfect.
