You are looking at one of our favorite radios. This is an ultra-rare and highly desirable Majestic model 174 in all original and complete condition. Built in 1934, it was a marvel of ingenuity and certainly well ahead of its time with the radio program pre-set feature controlled by the timing mechanism on the right hand side.
It is one thing to own one of these ultra rare model 174, but we recently took delivery of a second one. The picture on the right is of both radios side by side. The painted one will soon be completely restored and then proudly displayed with its compansion.
