I bought this fantastic Kingston console radio at an antique shop in Brazil, Indiana. Kingston radios were made in Kokomo, Indiana, so this is a local radio. The finish is in excellent shape, with only one small veneer split which I repaired. The knobs were missing, but I was able to find some that look good. The grille cloth is not really as red as it shows in this picture. I think the cloth may have been replaced at some point, this cloth does not look like a mid-1930's cloth to me.
