FADA 5f60 'Baby Fada' Catalin Radio in All Onyx Green

Beautiful Early FADA 5F60 Catalin Radio

Ref: RA910

Beautiful translucent + marbleized Onyx Green Fada 5F60 Catalin radio. This rare prewar 1936/37 is one of the earliest catalin radio models made and has a simple and distinct cabinet design. This beautifully swirled example is all-original with a beautiful glossy finish. This model has come to be known to collectors as the 'Baby Fada' because of its small size.

 Catalin cabinet has no cracks or chips; however it has the common small hairline off the back screw hole and a mild tube burn that blends nicely with the color. matching onyx green insert grille and fluted knobs are original and have no cracks, chips or repairs. Clear dial plastic cover + Fada decal are correct replacements. This beautiful FADA has been well taken care of and has very few small scratches consistent with light use and age. This is truly a great example of an all-original early FADA model.

The radio measures 7.75" wide by 5" 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.
