Rare vintage Silvertone Model 7108 battery-operated tube radio manufactured for Sears, Roebuck & Co. This attractive wooden tabletop radio includes several desirable extras that collectors appreciate, including the original shipping box, original service record tags, and the April 1, 1941 Silvertone Radio Time Table & Log.
The cabinet presents well with attractive wood grain and original finish. The chassis appears complete but is dusty from age. I have not tested the radio and have made no attempt to power it on. It is being sold as-is for restoration, display, or parts.
