Antique Philco Model 90 Baby Grand Super Heterodyne radio featuring a cathedral style walnut cabinet / case, molded rosette style Bakelite knobs, and golden beige grill cloth.
Referred to as "the epitome of antique radios"
"The Philco model 90 Baby Grand, introduced in June of 1931, continued the line of successful Philco compacts that had begun with the model 20 Baby Grand almost a year earlier, in August of 1930. Its robust, no-nonsense but classical demeanor has made it today one of the most famous and widely recognizable of all vintage radios. The original list price was $69.50, complete with tubes. The cabinet design, patented in February of 1931 by Edward L. Combs, was shared with several other Baby Grands, including the models 21 and 70. However, the 90's cabinet is the largest of them all and is immediately distinguishable because of the vaulted mouldings around its base, compared with continuous mouldings on each of the other models. The model 90 uses Philco's 9-tube Balanced Superheterodyne chassis, which was in the middle of their 7, 9 & 11-tube chassis line introduced for 1931/32. This same chassis served for both the model 90 lowboy & highboy."
