Beautiful Early FADA 5F60 or 'Baby Fada' Catalin Radio

Ref: RA840

Beautiful + Rare Fada 5F60 Catalin radio in marbleized yellow with a bright green insert grill. This rare prewar 1936/37 is one of the earliest catalin radio models made and has a simple and distinct cabinet design. This yellow + green example is all-original and in great condition with a beautiful glossy finish. This is a striking color combination for this radio. This model has come to be known to collectors as the 'Baby Fada' because of its small size.

The catalin cabinet and grille retain the factory gloss, the green trim adds contrast and style to this stunning example. Catalin cabinet, insert grille and fluted knobs are original and have no cracks, chips or repairs. Cabinet has a mild tube burn as seen in the photos; common for this small model radio. 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.
