Silvertone 1720 Information
#25

I have an Airline (Montgomery Ward) with similar 1933-34 styling, and it works on older maintenance.  I paid $150, so I think that's definitely in the ballpark.  Honestly, some of these are the best-styled radios ever made, my opinion.  But the others are right, they're not real collectible right now, so not drawing high prices.  That's good for us, if we want more of them!  :-)

From a technical point of view, your radio has parallel push-pull output 45-tubes.  A 45 tube sells for $20-30 if it tests good.  If they're all there and good, that's most of the value of the radio, just in the output tubes.  Ya done good.
