Philco Radiobar 1940-1941 Chippendale
#19

Many years ago, I had two Radiobars,I can't recall if they even had a model # anywhere on them, mid 30's maybe '37? One I got from a friend, had NO glassware in it, other one I bought out of an estate sale and it had all the glass in it. I remember they had silver stripes around each piece. I don't recall any other colored stripes though. The ice buckets were aluminum with large rubber "O" rings at their top lips, to quietly sit in cut-outs at the left of the work tray.
   I'm betting these were original glassware, as this estate was well kept by the mature woman that lived there. I'm betting she was a lot of fun back in the day too. I agree with past post, don't ditch the glassware you have. Who's to say factory didn't change at some point.
