1950's Crosley Clock Radio
Found this locally this morning. I'm not super sure of the model. Maybe an F-25?
Pretty amazing condition. It keeps time, and the radio sounds great. No cracks, scratches or gouges on the cabinet. Sleep timer. Alarm. I like it. https://i.imgur.com/zV9DSjW.jpg?1 https://i.imgur.com/RFW7oPA.jpg?1 https://i.imgur.com/b57SR5b.jpg?1 |
That may be the same model as a green one I passed on a few years back
|
Aw dude....too cool to pass on!
|
I think the clock was broken...I don't do clock repairs, only electronics so I passed.
|
Really handsome clock radio!

I would have done the same. This was a woman's grandfathers's clock. So I guess its a grandfather clock. :D Seriously though, it could pass for new. No buzz when the volume is down, and when rotated a bit while tuning, the stations come in clear and with good tone. There's even an electrical socket on the back so a person can use the alarm to turn on appliances, like a coffee maker. 1950's innovation. :smoke: https://i.imgur.com/eSGuSNO.jpg?1 |

I just noticed that I forgot to put the sleep knob on back on after I dusted and wiped it down.

Funny thing is that at twice the price of the "Crosley color clock radio" in the plain jane box , it likely has the exact same electrical components . It ain't the steak it's the sizzle ..... :D

:thmbsp: Oh , and I forgot to say , I do like the looks of it , nice score !
:D PS , aren't you the guy who asked me if I have a warehouse for a hundred or so sets ? It seems you've been on quite the buying spree lately , not that there's anything wrong with that as long as ya got the room for them all :D |

MY warehouse is not so large. I'm now forced to focus on smaller radios, or give up a console or two. which I'm not going to do. :banana: Small radios can occupy every nook, cranny, shelf, and alcove in my home. When that is full, some of the wife's crap will need to go. :D |
Is that a SANGEAN near that clock??
