The original red trim adds contrast and style to this stunning example of a FADA Bullet model. This radio is as clean as one can be found and would truly make a great addition to any radio or Deco collection.

Radio has original trim, earlier gold patterned grill cloth, and back panel in superb condition. The Art Deco gold "Gemloid" dial face is bright and in great condition. Clear dial plastic cover is a correct replacement. Radio has been well taken care of and only shows some scratches consistent with age + careful use.
