CBS-Columbia 517A (1953)
(Bakelite tube table radio)

CBS-Columbia 517A (1953)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

This painted Bakelite radio still has its original maroon paint job. The front view is the most like the actual color. Flash photos don't always come out exactly right with this color. The cabinet is perfect except for just minor specks in the paint. The logo is missing from the front grille but the back is original and even mentions the original color. This is probably the newest model that still used bantham (octal base) tubes. Completely restored, sounds great and my guarantee applies. About 7 pounds.
