Zenith 6D030 Wooden Tabletop (1946)

This Zenith was my first wooden radio. The case was in pretty pathetic shape when I bought it. Unfortunately, I do not have a "before" picture. The finish was badly flaking, and the brass piece was black with old grime. I stripped the case with a furniture refinisher, and restained and lacquered it. The brass piece cleaned up quite well.

The radio worked as found. I did some minor cleaning, and replaced a dead pilot lamp. It could probably stand to be recapped, but since it works as is, I'll wait until I have no other projects!

This radio is a close relative of the Zenith 6D015, another radio in my collection.
