On the top right of the page your homepage will show any new vintage radio listings I offer. Zenith model its the very hard to find Zenith H517 model from 1951. With the iconic "Z" emblom on it. I found it at an estate sale, we had the electronics serviced, and now this special radio is ready for that discerning collector that wants something not many collectors have! It tunes in stations very well (at night I was able to get some feint Shortwave activity), however, attaching a long antenna may be needed to maximize the shortwave stations it will pull in. Please take a moment to hear/see this radio in action, then scroll down below for more information! As you can hear, this rare Zenith looks and sounds great. The knobs work as designed with no slipping and there is no hum. Its amazing to find such an old survivor in this kind of working condition it was serviced by a professional tubes were checked and were strong, tuning and volume controls were cleaned and lubricated, the dial string was repaired, the mechanism installed for a external speaker was detached and removed. The radio works great and is ready for your listening pleasure!

As with any radio 65 year old there are going to be some blemishes and imperfections on the top, sides, back, bottom, and front but nothing that detracts from the overall look of the radio. The small holes on the lower left side are clean and smooth and will not effect the structural rigidity of the case nor the performance and are not too easy to see given their location.

A small price to pay for having such a rare Zenith in your collection. Beautiful functional piece of art perfect for any collector who loves rare Zenith models made in the 1950s.

Dimensions are 12 in length X 9 high X. I use plenty of Bubble Wrap, extra padding and double box or use extra box support material. It will be marked Fragile & This side up on the box to make sure it is handled carefully. The radio is fully insured. A small sampling of my feedback.

Best packaging ever for a vintage radio - I really appreciate it. Fantastic radio as advertised, careful and thoughtful packaging. If there are any problems, please contact me and we can review options.
