Vintage Sparton 566 Bluebird Radio Art Deco Blue Mirror Glass Original 1936
Price: US $3350.00

Up for sale an fresh out of an old estate come this Wonderful andHighly Sough after Authentic Art Deco1936 Sparton Model 566 Radio also Nicknamed the \"Bluebird\". It was Designed by Walter Dorwin Teague. Beautiful blue Glass mirror surrounds the Radio and also comes with its original Blue Glass mirror base or Plateau. Its all original and Authentic never been touched and will come just as you see it! Stands an impressive 15\" high and 14-1/4\" wide.. I\'m notan expert onantique Radios but I will describe what I see..First off, yes it does have damage (see photo) off to the side you will see 3 cracks in the mirror and one of the round wooden black feet is missing. The Plateau is 14-1/4\"wide analso has a smallunderside bruise & chip on the edge (see photo)..With that said, I pluggedthe radio in and itworks right now(see video) and also comes with its original paper pamphlet that was folded up and stored in the back of the radio.. The center Dial facedoesn\'t seem to light up could be something simple to fix and My thoughtsare that the Plateau could be cut to replace the Radio mirror and the small damagespot on the plateau will be covered up by the round black wood foot.. So, Yes it can be done! Or if you own any of the Art deco Blue mirror tops fromend tables those could be cut as well to refurbish the radio..The Chrome on the radio looks be in good condition and will need a good cleaning and polishing.. The radio dial face that has the sparton name on itis in great condition with no fading, it just my pictures are notthe best to show that. Its a great Radio and worthy of Restoration!TheRadio is being Sold As-is as foundwith no returns as I have told youthat is notperfect. Anythingelse I\'ve left out just ask and Ill try mybest to answer it.. (Below is a video of the radio working)

On Mar-30-15 at 09:31:20 PDT, seller added the following information:

*****There has been a lot of Interest in this Radio and Specially the Plateau it sits on. Both piece are 100% Original and with there Original Felt backing, Guaranteed!The Plateauwas offered thru the company but as anextra pieceback in 1936 and did not come with the Radio. You had to buy the Plateau separately if you wanted it, so that\'s why not many of them are around or exist today.

I\'ve been Offered by 2 different buyers considerable Highamounts of $$$to end the sale and just sell them the Plateau which I may regret but the sale willcontinue to the end and may the highest buyer win!!!*****
