Silvertone 1824. Everything on the chassis looks original, and extremely clean. Cabinet looks almost too good: doesn't appear to have been lacquered.

Clean chassis, nicely preserved finish.....if coupled with the price <= $100, great find!

Yeah, I gave him $100 for it. I could have got it for less, but I bought 8 radios from him, and gave him $40 for a Zenith 8S129. Really nice guy, and has a few HUNDRED radios, but mostly bakelite.
