DeWald Catalin Radio 561 'Jewel' in Butterscotch + Maroon

Seldom Seen Two-Tone DeWald Model

Ref: RA811

Catalin DeWald 561 'Jewel' Radio in butterscotch with maroon trim.  One of only 3 Catalin radios ever manufactured by DeWald and made in 1939. The beautiful butterscotch catalin cabinet has faint marbleizing and a beautiful gloss. The original maroon trim adds contrast and style to this stunning example of a DeWald model. The design of this radio while boxy has numerous Art Deco elements such as the outline grill surrounding the grill slits, semi-circle handle and fluted knobs. This is an uncommon DeWald model to find in any color combination.

Radio cabinet has no cracks, hairlines or repairs; however it does have two small chips on the bottom back edge where back panel would have attached (common to this model). The maroon trim is all original with no cracks, chips, or repairs. DeWald decal is original to the radio and in great condition. Dial plastic + grille cloth have been replaced. Radio and trim have small scratches consistent with careful use + age. This great radio would make a great addition to any radio or Art Deco collection.

Radio measures: 9.5" wide x 6.25" high x 6" 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.
