I'm doing a little "attic cleaning" and I found this radio that I bought in a garage sale about 15 years ago. I think I paid 5 bucks for it. Is it anything that a radio collector would care about?

If it were a piece of 70's Marantz stereo gear I would know what I had, but this.....I'm a little lost.

I would grab a radio like that in a heartbeat! Beautiful dial!

I found another one on the web identified as R-169A, which may be the chassis number, appears to be 1937. Schematic is here: http://www.nostalgiaair.org/PagesByModel/217/M0021217.pdf

Oh, yeah, baby...that's PURTY !!

Stewert-Warner was a Chicago company located on Diversey Ave. I thought they only manufactured the tuning dials found in the radios. Learn something new every day. Very nice looking unit. :thmbsp:

What Tom said. That's a keeper!

Here's my old Stewart Warner-
