Espey Catalin Radio in Plum with Butterscotch - Exceedingly Rare
Rarely Seen ESPEY Catalin Midget Radio
Beautiful + All-Original Exceedingly Rare Espey Catalin Radio in bright plum with marbleized translucent butterscotch trim. This beautifully minimalist designed Deco midget size radio has etched speed-lines on the front wrapping around the left side, flared bottom sides, curved handle and vertical catalin dial surround and dial face. Manufactured by the Espey Manufacturing Company, Inc., New York, N. Y. during the late 1930s early 1940s.The Espey midget radio was only made in two different color combinations, as shown and butterscotch with plum trim. This is the only one in this color combo I have personally seen or owned. Espey catalin radios rarely come to the open market as they are usually traded privately from one collector to the other. Since being discovered in the early 1990s at a Georgia flea market this particular radio has been in four different catalin radio collections over the years. This radio would definitely make for a unique + rare addition to a catalin radio collection. This Espey's radio cabinet has no cracks, chips, tube burns or repairs and retains a beautiful natural gloss and translucency. The marbleized + translucent butterscotch dial surround, handle and knobs are original to the radio and free of damage. Radio retains part of the original cardboard back panel. The gold with plum silk-screened vertical slide-rule dial face is bright and original with no wear. Chassis is original to the radio and in beautiful condition. The dial plastic is a correct replacement. Please note that the grill slits/speaker openings on an original Espey radio such as this one form a circle shape. Cabinet also only has 3 screw holes on the bottom and back edge of cabinet is flat with no recesses on the corners. It also has some other small details details that I'd be happy to point out that make an all-original Espey unique This small radio measures approximately: 7.5" wide by 5.5" high by 4.5" 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. ** We are always LOOKING TO BUY any Espey Catalin Bakelite Radios - TOP PRICE PAID FOR THIS RADIO in any color or condition.
