_nr2.jpg "Emerson 511 Beetle \"Moderne\" (1947)") THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD! |
| This is a seldom seen Emerson model 511 "Moderne" in brilliant red Beetle Plaskon with bronze (sometimes referred to as gold) marbling. The hand-polished cabinet has no breaks, cracks or hairlines - just a few surface scratches. The set has an integrated handle and the dial lights up nicely in the dark from above by a pilot lamp inside its original white Plaskon housing. Except for its replacement cord, the set is all-original and still retains its original bottom label. Attributed to famous industrial designer Raymond Loewy, it was introduced in the fall of 1947 at the original price of $29.95. It not only looks great, but plays loud and clear across the AM dial as well. Truly an eye-catching addition to any radio collection. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. About 11-1/2"W x 7-1/2"H x 6-1/2"D. |
