FADA 652 "Temple" (1945)
(Catalin tube table radio)

FADA 652 "Temple" (1945)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

With its sleek rounded case design, the FADA Catalin "Temple" is truly a radio icon. This set is in as mint condition as you'll likely find. The beautiful butterscotch case with red trim is in immaculate condition with no cracks, chips, hairline cracks or tube burns. The bottom panel surface scratches in the number "2" are factory originals; FADA numbered these cases for some reason. Other its correct replacement dial glass, red marbleized repro knobs and new power cord, everything is original to the set. The chassis has been rebuilt with all electrolytics and weak tubes replaced so it's now picking up all my local stations across the AM dial. The backlit dial glows beautifully in the dark. However, if you play this radio, just be sure to do so for short periods of time to avoid tube burns. About 11"W x 7"H x 6"D.
