Arvin 250-P Portable (1948)
(x tube portable radio)

Arvin 250-P Portable (1948)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

AM broadcast only. This is an unusual radio in that most of the exterior case is made of a dense fiberboard instead of plastic or metal. All the light green in the pictures is fiberboard. There is some color variation, not as evident as the pictures indicate. Some guides describe it incorrectly as metal. Only the top and bottom caps are metal, light tan hammertone. It is in extremely good condition with only a paint chip or two. There aren't many of these around and even fewer in this good a condition. It performs well, has five tubes and operates on AC line or battery. The battery is Eveready #753 or equivalent. These are no longer available so unless a special battery pack is fabricated from current products, quite possible, it will be limited to plug-in use. 12"W x 10"H x 6"D, weight about seven pounds.
