Scarce Sentinel Catalin Radio Model

Ref: RA1091

Scarce Sentinel 195ULTA / 195U catalin radio in a beautiful + marbleized alabaster case with translucent tortoise trim. This radios design with its wrap around grill, asymmetrical design with stepped top + push-buttons is a magnificent, exquisitely crafted Art Deco radio.  Manufactured in 1939 by Sentinel Radio Corporation, out of Illinois.  This model is seldom seen in without cracks. The catalin has a deep shine, rich color and glow with that is highlighted by clear and white marbleizing.

The cabinet has no cracks, chips, or repairs; does have a small tube burn on top as seen. The translucent catalin grille, knobs and push-buttons are original to the radio and in perfect condition. The radio is a stunning example of this Sentinel model that is seldom seen in perfect condition as they are prone to damage.  Dial plastic cover is a correct replacement.

This radio measures approximately:  10.25" wide by 6.75" high by 5.25" deep. This set is sold "as-is + untested", the chassis seems complete.  Set is being sold as a "non-working" vintage electronic device that should be gone over by a qualified technician.
