Here we have a vintage 1959 RCA Victor Tube Radio. Nice mid century modern unit. We tested this radio with a test chord. This radio does work, however it needs a new chord and to be recapped. The stations do come in but it hums loudly. In beautiful cosmetic condition with only minor wear as shown in pictures. This radio measures approximately 10-1/3" across by 7" tall and 5-1/2" wide. See pics.
