Circa 1928 In my opinion, this is RCA's most attractive and desirable radio speaker from the 1920's. This one has been restored with a reproduction Grill cloth & rear dust cover. The grill cloth is durable linen with a high resolution photo of the original art work silk screened on the fabric. All the detail of the tapestry work appear and can't be distinguished from original unless inspected very close up. Otherwise excellent and all original. These are hard to find in decent original condition as the case is made of "repwood" (sawdust & glue) and the original tapestry is usually damaged or has deteriorated because of age and environment. This speaker will work with any early battery or AC radio of the 20's requiring a two wire high impedance speaker. Nice clean sound, with excellent original flexible speaker cord with phone tips.
