.jpg "Emerson 564 \"Slot Grille\" (1940)") |
Here is a beautiful diminutive, somewhat rare Onyx Green Catalin Emerson model 564 "Slot-Grille." This is a magnificent small Art Deco radio that features a vertical slide rule, lighted dial + a series of symmetrical grille cut-outs, thus the nickname "slot grille." Emerson Radio & Phonograph Corp, out of New York, manufactured this midget Catalin radio in 1940. It has been restored & plays well, but it is Catalin & most collectors don't play them (not I). The Catalin has a beautiful gloss and is just a stunning example of this Emerson model that is highlighted by heavy mottling of reddish, yellow and lighter onyx green swirls. This beautiful set is in great condition but does have two small dings on left front edge which I have zoomed in on for your inspection. Look at other pics & notice those dings aren't that apparent (zoom makes them appear larger than they are), but they are there. There do not appear to be any other cracks, repairs or major scratches which are consistent with age + careful use. Water-slide decal is a replacement. The swirled knobs may/may not be originals but look good on the radio. A cardboard back is in place. This is sweet little radio in excellent condition. 7"W x 5"H x 3-3/4"D. $1,250.00. (1640356) |
