Sparton Tube Radio A.C. Receiver Model 121 or 141 or 1058 with 8L9 Chassis ~ ~ 8 Vacuum Tubes The reason I am not sure of the model number is because there are two conflicting tube charts (both shown in pictures). The one on the back of the chassis also has the 1058 model number crossed out, with the number 141 written above it. Personally, I tend to believe the one mounted on the cabinet (Model 121), based on the looks of other Sparton radios listed on ebay. I tried to test this, but the speaker wires are disconnected, so I wouldn't know if it was working or not. All the tubes seemed to light up. Also, the string is not in place to move the dial indicator, so I was lost there too. I am offering this radio completely AS-IS, not working, needs repair. Wooden cabinet measures 15-3/4 by 11-3/4 by 9-1/4 inches. Weighs 19 pounds 4 ounces. PM-AM-FM. Black knobs feel like plastic. Faceplate might be metal (copper color). Dial/stations window is plastic. Grille cloth looks good. The basic cabinet itself is all wood. Lots of scratches, a few smaller gouges. No cracks or splits. Please look over the pictures!
