Condition
Overall in very good original condition. Each of the radios show gentle signs of use including edge abrasions, light surface scratches, edge nicks and minor discoloration to the metal elements, which are all visible in the catalogue illustration. This offering includes the rare recording playing version of the Zenith Model 6D030. All the radios appear to retain all the original elements, but have not been examined for functionality. One of the radios appears to be lacking a back plate. A wonderful extensive offering assembled by a collector to comprise original examples of each model.
