Motorola 5X11U (1950)
(Bakelite tube table radio)

Motorola 5X11U (1950)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

I am the third owner of this 70-year old radio. Not only is this all-original radio is seldom seen, one in such mint condition has to be one of a kind. The burl-patterned Bakelite cabinet has a beautiful shine and is in mint condition with no surface scratches, cracks, hairlines or chips. The original knobs and mesh dial background are perfect. The lettering and numbering on the dial are perfect as is the wavy Motorola logo on the front panel. The bold round dial and propeller dial pointer are in perfect condition as is the metal stand that wraps around the bottom edge of the set. The chassis has been completed restored by the previous owner and works great across the band with the built-in copper loop antenna. One of the best receivers I have owned. Original back. Almost like NOS, you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer version of this Atomic Age radio. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. About 11"W x 7"H x 6"D.
