Beautiful Bright Red Catalin Art Deco Emerson AX-235 Radio 'Little-Miracle'. Made in 1938 by Emerson Radio + Television is Emerson's first example of a small Catalin radio that also features a unique louvered insert grill. The small size of this radio combined with the great bright color and contrasting trim really makes for a stunning Art Deco radio.
This highly marbleized + bright red cabinet has no cracks, warp, tube burns or repairs; however it does have a few small chips on the inside top back rail (back panel retaining holes) this can not be seen when radio is displayed. This is a common issue with the Emerson Little Miracle and in no way does it detract from the beauty of this radio. Cabinet retains the original factory gloss and the ivory tenite/plastic trim is original to the radio. Water-slide decal is original and in perfect condition. This models fragile plastic ivory grill + knobs which are prone to deterioration have been replaced with exact color correct replacements. Radio retains the original manufactures label on the bottom of cabinet. Dial plastic and decal are correct replacements.
Radio measures approximately: 8.85" wide by 5.25" high by 3.75" deep. This set is sold "as-is + untested", the chassis seems complete; dial pointer does not turn. Set is being sold as a "non-working" vintage electronic device that should be gone over by a qualified technician prior to use.
