  • Notes
  • No less than 30 surprising features distinguish the 1938 ZENITH... 30 features that place ZENITH again a year ahead ! Call and see the latest Zenith achievement-the Big Black "Robot"" Dial, which is almost human something entirely new! Here are separate full-sized dials for each wave-band-Standard Broadcast, Short wave and Amateur. The Miracle Switch changes wave-band and dial--simultaneously... so that only one clear, easy-to-read dial is visible at a time! To appreciate the ease and simplicity of these two ZENITH features alone, you must see them for yourself. Ask your local dealer to demonstrate to you the Between Station Finder...the Station Re-Locator ... Electric Target Tuning and Spinner Tuning, etc. You have seen nothing like the new 1938 ZENITH with its 30 wonderful features.
