Manufactured in the 1940's by ADDISON INDUSTRIES LIMITED in Toronto, Canada also known to collectors as the 'Courthouse' or 'Large' Addison. Pistachio catalin was only used by four radio manufacturers of the time and is therefore an uncommon find.

The bright pistachio green catalin cabinet has a glossy deep rich color, glow and also has exceptional, brown, clear, white + green marbleizing that add dimension to the radio. Radio's cabinet has been cut/polished back to its original bright pistachio green color from it's oxidized caramel coloring. The radio is original and is just a stunning example of this Addison model.

This beautiful set is in great condition with no cracks, chips, tube burns or repairs. The five maroon vertical grill bars are original as are the three matching pinwheel knobs. The grill cloth is original and has no tears or stains + has only a small amount of wear. Water-slide decal is a correct replacement. This is truly a remarkable radio in excellent condition. Radio has small scratches consistent with age + careful use.

This stately radio measures approximately: 12.5" Wide by 9" High by 7" Deep. This set is sold "as-is + untested", the chassis seems complete. Radio is being sold as a "non-working" vintage electronic device that should be gone over by a qualified technician prior to use.
