BENDIX AVIATION CORPORATION TABLE TUBE RADIO MODEL 526 C "JADE'' THIS VINTAGE BENDIX TABLE RADIO IS IN REALLY WONDERFUL CONDITON WITH NO MAJOR FLAWS. IT IS BEAUTIFUL IN ALL IT'S MARBLED JADE GREEN & BLACK PLASTIC / BAKELITE GLORY. T IN NO WARPING, CRACKING, OR DAMAGE NOTED OTHER THAN THE TINY TIP OF ONE OF THE BLACK SPEAKER GRILL BARS IS MISSING. THE MISSING LITTLE TIP IS AT THE VERY CURVED END and IS ABOUT 1/4 INCH LONG. YOU DON'T NOTICE IT IS MISSING UNLESS YOU LOOK FOR IT. THE RADIO HAS NOT BEEN CLEANED OR POLISHED AND HAS A LITTLE DUST ON THE TUBES. T ARE FEW VERY TINY SCUFF MARKS THAT ONLY SHOW WHEN YOU HOLD IT UNDER A STRONG LIGHT BUT THEY MIGHT POLISH OUT. IT IS ABOUT 11" WIDE, 6" DEEP, and 7" HIGH. THE BACKING PIECE IS ORIGINAL (IT WAS TAKEN OFF FOR THE PHOTOS) AND IS MADE OF SOME SORT OF PARTICAL / FIBER BOARD. T ARE ONLY TWO OF THE FOUR SCREWS FOR THE BACKING PLATE. CORD APPEARS TO BE THE ORIGINAL AND IS TWO PRONG. THE LITTLE PAPER CIRCLE THAT COVERS THE WIRES AT THE PLUG IS GONE. THE EXACT AGE OF THE RADIO IS UNKNOWN...MAYBE 1940'S...1950's? THE RADIO TURNS ON AND STATIONS SEEM TO FADE IN AND OUT. BOTH GREEN KNOBS WORK AND THE DIAL CHANGES STATIONS. I'VE HAD THE RADIO OVER 35 YEARS AND NEVER WORKED ON IT OR RESTORED IT IN ANY WAY. THAT'S IT...PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING. "SORRY" FOR THE POOR PHOTOS BUT read more
