Emerson Radio model AU190 catalin cabinet
This is a Emerson AU-190 from the late 1930s.
The glass-like catalin cabinet was offered in a rainbow of colors,
the rarest being the dramatically marbled greens, reds or blues.
It is a small radio measuring only 10 inches tall.
The matching knobs, reflective dial and decorative grille cloth
add to the beautiful, perfectly proportioned design.
It is serious eye candy!
Click on the radio to hear Gene Autry (double-click to pause/stop)
