Here is one of the most ornate tabletop radios from my collection. Just an amazing design! Stromberg-Carlson Model 500S, from 1940. Front as well as side views are simply beautiful. The front claims slanted walnut veneer, center book marking which blends in with left & right burl walnuts on front panel. I consider it very rare as I have never seen another & none sold on the Attic that I can find. Large, lighted "sunburst" or 8-point star looking tri-colored dial that is flawless. The cabinet appears all original as is dial, knobs, speaker, etc. It has a very clean factory painted red chassis. The tag on the chassis marks it as chassis #LE455KC, made in U.S.A. Rochester, NY. Unrestored, but plays very strong & clear on its factory loop antenna. (six-tuber). The cardboard back is a repro. A rather rare find for your collection. 14"W x 8-1/2"H x 8"D. $799.00. (1640240)
