Crosley Radio

This morning, I'm listening to my Crosley radio, circa 1930. I haven't quite figured out it's exact production date or model number but it was an easy restoration since the wiring was basically intact. Just re-wire with new cloth insulated stranded wire, and replace the tubes and capacitors with NOS tubes and polypropylene caps.

I saw a radio just like this on the movie, "Infinity," which was about physicist Richard Feynman and starred Matthew Broderick and Patricia Arquette. I always think it's cool when I see one of these old radios in a movie of the era.
