Great highly marbleized Art Deco Catalin radio from my collection made by General Television. This model was also offered with either a yellow or green/turquoise Cabinet cabinet always with ivory Tenite trim. They are very difficult to find in Catalin. This model also was available in Bakelite cabinets with colored Tenite trim.

    Very cool...I have one like it but it needs a lot of work. It is made out of bakelite, part of the case is missing and has a large crack in it. It doesn't work yet, all the electrolytic capacitors were popped so I have to replace them. I might even change the color.
    All your radios are beautiful...
