Thomas Collectors Edition Tombstone Radio – Model 217 (1988) - $45 (Chesterfield)
QR Code Link to This Post
Selling a Thomas Collector’s Edition Tombstone Radio, Model 217 (America Series Radio No. 0846). This is a 1988 reproduction, not an original 1920s–1950s radio. Made in China. Features AM/FM radio and a cassette deck.
The radio powers on and works; tuning a station can be a little sensitive, but once dialed in, it plays fine. Cassette player is untested, but the original seller stated it was tested. Wood cabinet has normal wear for its age with no major damage.
Link to Facebook Marketplace listing where there is a video of the radio working.

Additional Included Items:
I planned to replace the modern 2‑prong power cord with a vintage‑style cord for a Halloween prop project but never got around to it. I am including the parts so you can swap the cord if desired. Both items were purchased from Snake Head Vintage:
- 4 ft Brown & White Hounds-Tooth Round Cloth Covered 3-Wire Cord (Cotton)
- Vintage-Style 2‑Prong Electrical Plug, Non‑polarized, Brown
