The design of this radio reflects Zenith's efforts to achieve a modern "Machine Age" look, similar to its late 1940's and early 1950's sets, without offending its traditional customers. Zenith moved to a more radical (for Zenith) design approach later in the 1950's and early 1960's with more streamlined "Jet Age" cabinets. This radio has been restored electronically. All of its old wax and paper capacitors have been replaced. All tubes and resistors have been checked and replaced if found bad or out of specifications.

The cabinet is very glossy and in superb condition with no chips, cracks or breaks.
