ANTIQUE RADIO CLASSIFIEDqr

EDITOR'S COMMENTSA bridge to spring - that's how we like to de-

scribe the Greater Boston Antique Radio Collectors'(GBARC) annual February meet, the subject cf ourlead article. At this writing, we can fantasize that thisbridge needed to be only a short one because weare now enjoying record -breaking 60 degree tem-peratures. But, New Englanders are realists andknow that in a minute all that can change. Sinceoutdoor meets are not in our immediate future, wecan reflect on the success of Radio XXXV, theproduct of the hard labors of our own A.R.C. staff.

"Short and sweet" best describes this fast mov-ing, single morning event. Starting time is a carefullymonitored 8:00 A.M., and then the fun begins. De-spite the frigid weather, over 700 attendees filledthe Westford Regency ballroom and spilled overinto the lobby and two adjoining rooms. On viewwere 94 tables laden with radio and related trea-sures. As Dorothy Schecter points out in her article,this is a family affair, and this event also offers thepleasure of talking to people of all ages from as faraway as Hawaii.

In fact, camaraderie is key to a meet like this.This year, the good fellowship extended beyord theregular meet hours when I opened my museum toanyone who wanted to drop by to view my collec-tion. More than a dozen people made the short fivemile trip and enjoyed seeing my collection of 600plus items, including over 100 horns, as well as over100 crystal sets. Their enthusiasm for sets like the37 Grebe items has made me think more serouslyabout a barn/museum in the future.

In general, Radio XXXV proved to be as wellreceived as in preceding years. We seem to havefound the right venue in a location convenient tohighways, and because of our advertising, dealersknow that serious buyers will attend. Buyers, inturn, know that a wide variety of quality goods willbe offered.

At this meet, a buyer might find an item he's triedto find for seven years, as Tom Collins did, or howabout a whole new area of collecting, like JonGolden's miniature tape recorders? Whatever yourpleasure, you can't ask for more in the dead ofwinter when you need to get out to connect wth thereal radio world.

Speaking of reaching out, Richard Arnold's At-water Kent 84 article tells how he acquired this setin his early collecting days via a unique advertisingscheme. As his frequent byline in A.R.C. attests,Richard is one of our most prolific writers. Unfortu-nately, I had a memory lapse last month when Isaid on this page that I could not recall Arnoldarticles other than those on AC cathedrals. Rich-ard has reminded me of a dozen battery set arti-cles written from 1986 to 1994. Apologies for a"senior moment" that may send an alarming signal

that ten years might be my memory limit!Thanks to Loren Ashworth whose photos of a

CBS Col -R -Tel converter became the inspiration fora short "photo essay." This early color TV converterutilized the CBS field-sequertial color system, whichresulted in an excellent color picture, but was beat-en out by the RCA NTSC system used today.

Early television collecting is becoming more andmore in evidence, and we're glad that Dave Sicaalerted us to the second Early Television Conven-tion to be held April 24 and 25. Like the first conven-tion last spring, which Dave and friends describe inan article, this one will be held at what must be theperfect venue - the Early Television FoundationMuseum in Hilliard, Ohio. This museum containingSteve McVoy's extensive collection of televisionartifacts is well worth a visit.

In its heyday, radio was used by advertisers topromote almost everything. The gat pump advertis-ing globe in Photo Review piques the imagination,as we wonder if folks sought out the station with"Radio" gas and oil. Also mixed with an assortmentof interesting sets is a relatively rare Magnavox 1 -tube amplifier.

In his latest Estes Auctions report, Ray Chasesuggests that this may have been a historic event inthat a single vacuum tube sold for $14,500, whileanother sold for $7,000. In fact, 25 items sold forover $1,000 each. Certainly, these and other pricesare impressive, but prices weren't the only out-standing thing about this auction. Quality too wasmuch in evdence because a large percentage ofthe offerings came from the Sanfo-d Deutsch (seeSeptember 2003) and Donald Rossbach collections,both noted for their very fine condition.

MEET REPORT

Radio XXXVWestford, Massachusetts - February 15, 2004

BY DOROTHY SCHECTER

What's the best way for a collector to defeat thewinter doldrums? Leave the shop projects behindand get out to a major meet, such as the GreaterBoston Antique Radio Collector's (GBARC) Ra-dio XXXV in Westford, Massachusetts. Despitethe frigid temperatures outside, over 700 collec-tors did just that. From 8 A.M. to 1 P.M., theygathered in the Westford Regency Hotel ball-room, foyer, and two adjacent rooms to enjoy ashow that "brightens up the winter," according toJohn Hagman, down from Vermont for the plea-sure of hobnobbing with fellow radio aficionados.

This is definitely a meet for everyone - not justthe collector in pursuit of a coveted item, but alsofamilies and friends. If you were not among themthis year, we try in this report to give you an idea ofthe offerings - everything from AC battery sets,crystal sets, communications equipment, and TVsto vintage audio equipment.

In addition, after the meet, there was the oppor-tunity to visit Editor John Terrey's museum aboutfive miles away. A number of collectors stoppedby to see a collection that centers on pre -1925,pre-superhet, broadcast and early wireless sets.Among the more than 600 items were over 100horns and over 100 crystal sets. For many, if therewas a single highlight, it was the more than 37Grebe items. The collection is spread throughoutthree rooms in the spacious Terrey house, butJohn envisions a barn/museum in the near future.

YOUNG, OLD, AND NEW COLLECTORS

Perhaps the most striking thing about a meetlike this one is the fact that it hrings young, old,

and new collectors together. Seasoned collectorscome to communicate with old friends in the"business" of buying and selling old radios, TVs,and related equipment for the ultimate purpose ofpreserving radio history. But they must also beheartened by the presence of young and/or newcollectors who may well carry on their mission.

For example, it was good to see Max Lewontinback for a second year. Now 12 years old, Maxasked to have a table in the ballroom instead of inan adjacent room so that he would see more ofthe action. Three years ago, Max came as abuyer, but now he's committed to his slogan "MaxLewontin, the Art Deco Man." We expect to see

him as a "regular" at the GBARC show primarilybecause he says, "This show is a lot of fun.'

Max had a little competition in the age depart-ment this year. He's one of the old guard com-pared to two and one-half year old Ella Beauportwho clutched her first purchase of a transistorradio and patiently did the rounds of tables withher parents.

This was the Beauports' first trip to the GBARCmeet to check out tube gear and antique radios.Becca and Pierre Beauport are both musicians -he in a rock and roll band and she a player andcollector of synthesizers. Much to the surprise ofour editor John Terrey, Becca owns one of hissynthesizers, which he had previously sold to adealer in New York. Another small world story.Given Ella's interest in her new-found transistor,as well as her parents' involvement, we can havehigh hopes of her becoming one of us in the future.

Among the exhibitors' helpers we found faithfulyoung returnees, like teenager Lyndsey Eslingerwho comes with dad Peter from Enfield, Connect-icut. Another was recent college grad Ross Phil-lips up from Philadelphia to help dad Bruce withhis "Radio Orphanage," always an impressivedisplay. Teenager, Amanda Markell, is dad Den-nis' "chief financial officer." Both were eager toshow his Heathkit Model H-7 CW transmitter andhis "favorite radio in the whole world" -a DecoWestinghouse Model 104.

A first time helper was 11 -year old MichelleWood from Stafford Springs, Connecticut, whosedad Roger Wood is a collector with a stronginterest in tape recorders. Michelle's mom andbrother were enjoying the hotel amenities, espe-cially the swimming pool, but Michelle had optedto be a helper. A good beginning in our book.

sign at M.I.T. Ron worries about the interest o'the next generation in the preservation of radiohistory, and so he has started a course at theuniversity in radio repair. His hope is to infect hisstudents wi-h the "radio bug." To that end, Ronhad picked up a candidate for repair -a GermanGrundig AM/FM, which was his next project fo'the students back in Cambridge.

Ron also keeps a radio library ,n his office forstudents to use as reference. He was carrying acopy of David Rutland's Behind the Front Panel.just purchased at the A.R.C. book table. Ronalready has several copies of this book, which hesays is the best one on c rcuits of early batterysets for his students.

become first-time buyers. One of those was Adry-ann Strauss whom he described as having "agood eye." As a first-time attendee, she was at-tracted to a 1948 Fada AM/FM set on Dick Desjar-lais' table. Dick described the set as unique be-cause it had a mix of tubes and was one of theearliest AM/FM sets. Everyonelucked out - Dick made a sale,Adryann was delighted with herpurchase, and Ron was happybecause he could go to a friend'shouse to see the set, which wouldnow be loved and appreciated.End of happy radio meet story.

SUCCESS STORY

Success stories are anothergreat aspect of meets like RadioXXXV. Collectors come tosearch for special items, andsometimes we almost hear criesof "Eureka!" across the ballroom.Tom Collins of Charlton, Massa-chusetts, had been coming tothis event for thirteen years, andfor the last seven, he had beenlooking for a tuning capacitor fora Clapp-Eastham set in his col-lection. Shortly after his arrival,he found it, and so, this collectorsmiled for the rest of the meet.

Tom is the fortunate ownerof a two-story building whichhouses his extensive collectionranging from a DeForest Audion, early radios,electro-medical equipment, and electronics, toa 1960 TV camera. The 28' x 32' building is fullyheated and well lit. Though the museum is still awork in progress, Tom is glad to open it onrequest. We hope to have more information in afuture issue, but you may call (508) 248-1976 if

you wish to view the collection.

MULTIPLE REASONS TOATTEND

For Joseph Lagana, aided bydaughter Nancy, this was a firsttime at this meet. Now they knowthat it's a good beginning to"cleaning out the cellar." But,Dave Sutherland and wife Karenhave a different take on what tobring to this meet - no cellar"junque" or hardware, just paperand ephemera. Dave wants toopen a different market, includ-ing everything from radio foodproducts, radio soda bottles, andradio cookie jars to a collector'sitem of the future -a poster forthe current presidential primaryshowing the ABC logo and acopy of a speech by John Kerry.An observer called it the "bestthing in the show."

Richard Sharisky comes tosocialize and to "prospect," notto sell, though he has a table atwhich he hangs his "Wanted"sign. Frank Murphy comes to help

his friend Lenny Provost man his table full ofmultitype items. A radio wife's superb apple piesseems to be one of the rewards of this partnership.

Some folks are willing to go to great lengths toattend an event like this one. Sean Adkins ar-ranged to fit this meet into his business trip fromHawaii. Apparently the effort was worth it, as

Comments on Radio XXXV From The InternetFrom Lou deGonzague:Just got back from this old favorite meet

only three hours away from home. Got tochat with Alan Douglas and John Hagman- worth the price of admission. I had atable with mostly old test gear, of which Isold about 75 percent at rock -bottom pric-es. I had a fairly nice old Silvertone consolefrom the 1930s that needed restoration,but was complete. I let it go for $10... Ap-parently, you have to have a completelyrestored radio to sell at this meet. Thistells me that there aren't too many outthere who want to get into the innards ofthese old relics... I had a good time andhope to go to Nashua in the spring.

From Adam Vaughn:I had an excellent time at the Westford

meet where I picked up an outstandingcollection of stuff, much of it video -related.My lone radio purchase was an RFT "Tere-phone" Model Super 5080C AM/SW set, aninteresting East German radio that workswell... I would appreciate info on this setfrom overseas collectors.

From John Hagman:The event at the Regency in Westford,

Mass., is usually one of the busiest EastCoast shows, and this year's was no ex-ception. I had decided to shop and social-ize, as opposed to getting a table as Ihave in the past... This is an 8 A.M., con-trolled -start event, and although we allget more sleep, it is a bit chaotic as sell-ers enter and exhibitors set up at thesame time. Oddly enough, there was farmore in the way of buyers than of mer-chandise.

[On the stage, an area set aside forconsoles,' I saw a bunch of restored, $500 -plus consoles, Silvertones and such, ear-ly in the show and expected them neverto sell. Wasn't I surprised when the stagewas nearly empty before noon, and notbecause any sellers had already left... Iregretted not getting a table and plan todo so next year...

I thank the staff of A.R.C. for puttingon a great show as usual... If you want tobuy or sell radios, don't miss this eventnext year.

As an aside, he is also aregular supplier of radio props for the entertain-ment industry. That old set you may have seen ina regional, community, or TV show may we'l havecome from Sam.

Sam's personal collection contains models hesays are so old that they are not even seer in oldcatalogs - sounds like a special exhibit shouldbe in order. Sam paid us the ultimate compliment- "Your magazine is the best magazine in thecountry." Spoken like a true supporter of every-thing radio.

Some collectors come because, like Doris andLowell Shultz of Ambler, Pa., they found that itwas worth the trip after their first try last year. TheShultz radio story is a fairly typical one. In thearmy, Lowell was a radio repair man, then in hisprofessional life, he became an electrical engi-neer, and now in retirement, he's back to oldradios. Life comes 'round full circle.

Most people who attend this show seem toagree with the sentiment expressed by Giselleand Philip Guinan of Litchfield, New Hampshire,- "This is just a great show, not to be missed."So be sure to put next year's date on your calen-dar - February 20, 2005. See you there.

WITH THE COLLECTORS

Atwater Kent Model 84BY RICHARD ARNOLD

"It pays to advertise" is the message sent byRichard Arnold's article telling how he acquired anice Atwater Kent Model 84. (Editor)

I purchased this Atwater Kent Model 84, shown inFigure 1, sometime in the fall 011985 when I was abrand new collector. At the time, I was selling insur-ance and used to include radio cards in monthlystatements. I had one customer who brought a radioto my office where we agreed upon a price of $75.This was my first cathedral, the Atwater Kent Model84. Needless to say, I was so impressed by thebeauty and size of this radio that from that time on Iwas hooked not only on collecting radios, but alsoon cathedrals in particular.

THE ATWATER KENT MODEL 84

Mr. Charles S. Bradley first designed the AtwaterKent 84 in 1931. The design patent was applied foron February 17, 1931, and the patent #84316 wasissued on June 9, 1931.

Since it measures 19" x 15 743" x 9 7/8" with itsGothic arch, the Atwater Kent 84 is considered acompact style. In the fall of 1931, an Atwater Kentradio ad states the following: "Model 84, goldenvoiced compact with the pentode tube. The cabinethas a Gothic front of matched butt walnut. The sidesare of selected striped walnut. A quick -vision dial.New electro-dynamic speaker. Antenna adjuster,securing full efficiency on an antenna of any length.It has an armored chassis, fully shielded to preventradiation and has a full rich tone." The radio sold for$69.50. That seems like nothing now, but back inthe Depression era that was a large sum of money.Actually, the radio was more expensive than most ofits competition.

There were four versions of the Model 84 made.All models had both an early and late version. Themodel numbers are the following: 84 (part numbers17500 and 19000; 84F (part numbers 17600 and19200); 84D (part numbers 17800 and 19300); and840 (part numbers 18300 and 19400). The 840 isthe battery version of the model.

The radio pictured in this article is the earlyversion of the Model 84. This set is a 6 -tubesuperheterodyne, listed as part number 17500.The six tubes used are as follows: three Type 24used as 1st IF, 1st and 2nd detector; one Type 471st AF; one Type 27 oscillator; and one Type 80rectifier. The radio has no tone control, but thelater version of the Model 84, part number 19000,does have tone control, as do all other late ver-sions. It also has a slightly different cabinet styleand tube type lineup consisting of two 35s, one 24,

Figure 1. The Atwater Kent Model 84.

one 47, one 27 and one 80.The tube lineups for the other three models are

as follows:

Model 84F (early): three Type 24s, one 27, one 47and one 80.

Model 84F (late): one 24, one 27, two 35s, one 47and one 80.

Model 840 (early): one 33, three 36s, and two 37s.Model 84D (late): one 33, three 36s, and two 37s.Model 840 (early): two 30s, four 32s and one 33.Model 840 (late): two 30s, four 32s, and one 33.

The 84F is a 110v 25 -cycle; the 84D is a 110vDC; and, as stated earlier, the 84Q is a battery set.

This Model 84 tunes only the broadcast band.The three Bakelite knobs are for controlling thetuning, on/off and volume. The radio uses a 180 -degree, or half-moon, lighted, dial scale, with ametal escutcheon. The grille cloth is the originaldiamond pattern.

Of all the Atwater Kent cathedrals, this Model 84is considered the most common. It has a plainlooking cabinet when compared to the other AtwaterKent cathedral cabinet styles. However, it is still avery desirable radio and commands a high price.

Over the years I have continued to collect cathe-drals. Even though I have many other styles of

12

radios in my collection, the cathedrals still hold aspecial place.

Col -R -Tel ConverterBY LOREN P. ASHWORTH AND A.R.C. STAFF

In the early days of color television, there were twomajor systems proposed, one by RCA and the other byCBS. The Col -R -Tel converter, manufactured by ColorConverter, Inc. of Columbia City, Indiana, was a oevicethat decoded the CBS signals. It used a 12" black andwhite television receiver and a rotating color wheel.

At the transmitter, the CBS field -sequential colorbroadcasting system utilized a rotating wheel placed in

Figure 1. The Col -R -Tel converter wheel unit shownwith its factory manual.

Figure 2. The rear view of the wheel unit shows thedrive motor, the cable, and the support brackets thatrest on the TV top. The unit contains three sets ofautomotive type point -switches that turn on and off, asone of the color filters passes in front of the picture tube.

front of the camera tube. The wheel had three sets offilters: red, blue and green. The result was a stream ofcomplete pictures: red, blue, green, red, blue, green,etc. At the receiving end, a similar rotating disk wasplaced in front of the television picture tube. This rotatingdisk was synchronized with the transmitted pictures soas to show a red filter in front of the tube when the redpicture was received, blue for the blue picture, andgreen for the green picture. The result was an excellentcolor picture. In 1946, the New York Times called CBScolor "superior to the Technicolor seen in the movies "

The Col -R -Tel circular wheel unit, which is placed infront of the black and white television receiver, is shownin Figure 1. Figure 2 shows a rear view of the Col -R -Telcircular wheel unit. Figures 3 and 4 show the 7 -tubecontrol chassis.

Ultimately, the CBS field -sequential colorbroadcasting system was rejected by the FCC and theRCA -promoted NTSC system used today was adopted.

THE EARLY -ELEVISION FOUNDATIONMUSEUM

From humble beginnings, starting literally fromscratch less than four years ago, Steve McVoy'scollection of early televisions quickly grew to thepoint where he really did need a museum to holdit. Today, the Early Television Foundation Muse-um contains an extensive collection of historictelevision artifacts. It has just completed a 2,200square foot addition to its display space, morethan doubling the original area.

In the beginning, Steve focused his attentionon the early history of the technology, from the1920s (the days of the earliest successful dem-onstrations of mechanical television) through 1955(the second year of electronic color). He estab-lished a nonprofit foundation to buy a warehouse,hired a staff, and enlisted friends and family tohelp with renovations. The result is a series ofdisplay rooms defined by nation, brand, or era.Many of the sets are in working condition.

The immediate downside of Steve's intensecollecting is that some of the best current itemsare headed for Ohio and not to our collections.But the longterm upside is the institutional knowl-

edge that the special fans of this particular slice ofhistory will have. We will all be the keepers of thispart of broadcasting history.

Steve does more to encourage and publicizeand help other collectors of early televisions thananyone else. We all can surely marvel at andlearn from his collection and restorations. Hisfoundation and Web site have become the defacto center of the television collecting universe,a registry that benefits everyone. Steve makessure that we all know what is happening.

THE FIRST EARLY TELEVISION CONVENTION

The first of its kind Early Television Conven-tion, held in March 2003, promised to be a fasci-nating event, and given the fanaticism, demo-graphics, and, yes, the money involved in antiqueTV collecting, perhaps the start of something big.The event far exceeded museum founder SteveMcVoy's expectations, with collectors convergingfrom 20 states, Canada and Germany.

The convention came together rather casually.Steve had asked Nat Pendleton, Dave Johnsonand Geoff Bourne if they'd be willing to bringsome of their treasures to his museum in Hilliardand make a presentation about them. Theyagreed, and Steve posted a notice on his Website announcing the "First Annual Early Televi-sion Convention."

Several local collectors had already been talk-ing about making a pilgrimage to the museum.And, lo and behold, here was the perfect excuse!It was too good an opportunity to pass up. We'dget to meet our collecting colleagues and Internetfriends, as well as the one collector who hadchanged the face of our hobby and worked thehardest to get all of us together. We'd get to seewhat sort of artifacts exist and how they are

presented in one of the most ambitious televisionmuseums in the world.

As the number of people registering for theevent continued to rise, it quickly became appar-ent that the existing museum area itself was go-ing to be too small. As a result an unfinishedspace was hurriedly gussied up with some floorpaint, and sheets from Wal-Mart were hung fromconduit to serve as walls.

The first day began with visits to the museumby the 75 attendees (out of a total population ofperhaps 80 -some acknowledged collectors ofthese mahogany monsters). All of us were com-petitors for the earliest and rarest of the examplesof arguably the greatest cultural influence of mod-em times. And all of us gathered in the house ofthe modern day champion of the collectors -Steve McVoy. There are certa nly others withcollections to rival Steve's, but none so visible oraccommodating.

During the tour, we enjoyed viewing a 1954Milton Berle Show on the black -and -white televi-sions and clips from The Wizard of Oz on thecolor sets. Some ogled the 1930s British sets,others preferred browsing the postwar extrava-ganza, the military marvels, the tube displays orthe early color sets, most in working condition!Others were mesmerized by the setup enablingpeople to see their friends televised on a working1920s Nipkow-disc camera, photocell, and RCAneon -tube vertical -scan television.

It was an awesome and humoling experienceto stand in the middle of a room with virtuallyevery set you might ever wish to have in yourcollection, there on display and running! Standingnext to every one of the RCA TRK series, eachone with a period progran flickering on its prewarCRT had to qualify as... well, certainly as anextraordinary experience.

There's little doubt that most of the attendeesof this first convention will return for the second.Hope to see you there.

The Early Television Museum is located at5396 Franklin St.. Hilliard, OH 32026. The muse-um is open Saturdays from 10 to 6. Sundays fromnoon to 5, and during the week by appointment.

AllOSAMM.fAUCTION REPORT

Estes Auctions -Deutsch and Rossbach Collections

Burbank, Ohio - September 20, 2003REPORTED BY RAY CHASE

An historic event? Maybe not,but it surely set the current recordfor the sale of a single vacuumtube - $14,500. This was thefinal bid for a German Von Lie -ben LRS relay tube with a mea-surable filament, circa 1910. Asecond similar tube with an openfilament was sold for $7,000.Heady numbers for the vacuumtube collecting fraternity. Bothtubes were from the SanfordDeutsch collection of YorktownHeights, New York (see A.R.C.,September 2003, for a preview).Having one of these rare tubesfor public sale would be a mo-mentous event; two of them, well,incredible! For more details on the Von Liebentube, see Gerald Tyne's Saga of the Vacuum Tube.

The Deutsch collection was highlighted in theSeptember 2003 issue of Antique Radio Classi-fied, and review of that article is suggested alongwith this auction report. The radios from the Deut-sch estate were truly in outstanding condition andcould move right into the new owner's collectionwith no more than a dusting off.

Historic tubes were not the only items settingrecords at this auction. A mint condition WirelessSpecialty IP-501 paired with a rare Type B 2 -stepamplifier was hammered down at $31,000. Amongthe many other exceptional items from this super-lative collection were a Westinghouse SE -1012Ashortwave receiver at $10,000, a Western Elec-tric 4A receiver at $8,000, a Grebe CR-2 at $5,600,

and a Waterbury, Conn., Bristol B receiver at$3,600. Interestingly, in this 750 plus lot sale thattotalled over $196,000, 25 of the lots that sold at$1,000 or more contributed to over 50 percent ofthe final proceeds.

Other radios came from the Donald Rossbachcollection and these were also in very fine condi-tion. One interesting aspect of some of the earlybattery radios in this sale is that they were outfit-ted with "transistorized tubes" so that the radioswere immediately playable with very moderatebattery supplies. Printed instructions were includ-ed with most of the radios so equipped. I tried toidentify these radios in the following listings but

may not have noted all of them.Now one should not come away with the im-

pression that this sale was strictly for the "highrollers." As indicated previously, there were over750 lots in this auction, and, as is usually the caseat Estes auctions, there is something for every-body. This sale had a more than the usual selec-tion of books and paper items, along with goodgroupings of parts, military sets, Ham gear, tele-visions and miscellaneous moderately priced ra-dios of all sort. In addition to the rare tubes, therewas a very large selection of other collector tubesavailable to power up your battery and AC sets.There were few box lots and no transistor radios,but Estes had a follow-up auction scheduled forhis auction barn a week later that would have agood supply of these items.

As usual, the detailed price listing does notinclude the 5 percent buyer's premium that ischarged at this site. Also, I stayed until 5:30 P.M.recording this auction but then had to leave whilethe sale continued for another 20 to 30 minutes.Prices have been rounded down to the dollar.
