This is an absolutely stunning Air King Model 66 in beautiful Ivory Plaskon. It was manufactured in 1933. Many of the Air King Skyscraper models suffered from original molding problems or hairline and cracks as they began to age. This example is one of the best by far. There are only slight molding marks and the cabinet and trim are both free of cracks and hairlines. The radio stands about 19.5" tall.
