Superb Example of this Early FADA 5F50 Catalin Radio

Ref: RA833

Stunning prewar 1938 Fada model 5F50 Catalin radio in marbleized yellow with a highly marbleized bright red grille insert. Wonderful Art Deco model made in 1938 by FADA Radio + Electric Company has a beautiful design and size. This yellow and red example is all-original and in great condition with a beautiful glossy finish. The catalin cabinet retains the factory gloss, the red trim adds contrast and style to this stunning example.

The faintly marbleized cabinet is in excellent condition with no cracks or repairs; it does have chip on the inside of cabinet where the back panel would have attached....this in no way takes away from this great radio as it is not visible when displayed. Very faint tube burn on top. The highly marbleized red grill catalin insert grille is free of cracks, chips or repairs. Radio retains the original yellow fluted knobs and manufacturers sticker on bottom of cabinet. Clear dial plastic cover and water slide decal are correct replacements. This beautiful FADA has been well taken care of and has very few small scratches consistent with light use.

The radio measures 7.75" wide by 5.75" high by 4.75" 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.
