Great Early Wrap-Around FADA L-56 Catalin Radio

Ref: RA696

Beautiful FADA L-56 in marbleized yellow with translucent marbleized onyx green wrap-around grill, knobs + handle. This Art Deco catalin model made in 1939 by FADA Radio + Electric Company has a beautiful design and size. This seldom seen onyx green insert grill with a yellow cabinet is a beautiful example with beautiful marbleizing. The catalin cabinet retains the factory gloss, the translucent onyx trim adds contrast and style to this stunning example. This is a great example of an all-original early FADA.

The glossy yellow catalin cabinet, handle and knobs are in excellent condition with no cracks, chips or repairs. The original translucent onyx green marbleized grill has no cracks, chips or repairs. The beautiful graphic dial is bright and in great condition. The dial plastic + water-slide decal are correct replacements. Radio has small scratches consistent with age + use of set. This radio is as clean as one can be found and would truly make a great addition to any radio or Deco collection.

Radio measures approximately: 9" wide by 5.5" high by 4" 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.
