Retro 1951 Crosley “Serenader” Model 11-119U in painted Red and painted blue over a Bakelite case. This radio is often referred to by collectors as the “Bullseye” for obvious reasons. When looking at the sleek design of this radio it is clear that the Machine Age styling of the years past had a great influence on the design of this radio. The radio with its protruding bullseye speaker grill, curves and oversized tuning knob has was available in incredible colors that are not seen as often as the other colors radios were produced in.

   Outstanding photos. Thank you. I really enjoy looking at photos of the radios. Keep up the good work and, as they say in Indiana, don't be a stranger.
