This particular example is a stunning radio in excellent original condition with no cracks, chips, or repairs on the cabinet. The creamy white plaskon trim is complete and factory original to the radio and has no chips, burns or repairs. The original matching marbleized knobs are also perfect. The chassis seems complete and still has its original color coordinated dial scale. The dial plastic is original and in great condition with very little yellowing and clear. This model was never meant to have a back, as the screw holes were never drilled at the factory. Manufactures paper label is still affixed to the bottom of cabinet.
