This is a Canadian Rogers console radio with nine tubes and three bands.
I bought the radio in Saskatoon Saskatchewan. and it was in poor shape as far as the cabinet was concerned.. Someone had started to strip the cabinet and it was a mess. I finished the stripping and gave it several different coats of Mohawk toner and then coats of lacquer.I restored the chassis by replacing all the capacitors and anything that needed to be done.. the cabinet came out very nice . Everything on the radio is original except the replaced parts inside.These Canadian radios have a lot of very nice wood to work with.
It is one of my favorite radios because it really stands out in a room. They just don't make anything like this any more.
I hope you enjoy the photos..
Looking good!
Glad you are caring for it.
