Admiral 5S23N Bakelite Tabletop (1953)

This Admiral has an almost perfect case - not a scratch or chip in the white paint, which covers a brown bakelite case. The radio was purchased at a junk/antique shop, in a lot of three with my RCA 66-X-11 and Zenith 6D030.

I'v cleaned up the case and polished the brass knob inserts, so the radio is cosmetically in great shape.

Electronically, the radio does not work. It was missing its cord, so I replaced that. However, the radio is still dead. I've bought a schematic, but haven't had time to sit down with this radio since the schematic came in. It looks like someone may have tried a repair in the past, and done more damage than good. This one might be on the projects page for quite awhile..
