I would say that TV/radio/phono console is no older than early-mid-1950s. I suspect the seller had no idea how old this was and was making a wild, to say nothing of very wrong, guess when he or she was stating the unit's vintage. If this unit were actually from the 1930s it wouldn't have had a CRT, as, from what I understand regarding pre-war television, any TV from the 1930s was probably a scanning disk set. All-electronic television did not appear until after the end of World War II.

BTW and IMHO, the seller's asking price for this is way too high. I wouldn't pay more than $100 for it. The seller does not mention whether or not the set works, either; he or she should have at least mentioned that, and if the latter, mention should have been made that this is being sold for parts or for restoration -- but again, $800-plus for a parts set is much, much too high. This TV will need the usual recapping (at very least replacement of the filters in the power supply), control and tuner cleaning, etc. -- the usual stuff any of us VK folks would do with a set of this vintage if we were restoring it to past glory.
