RCA X-551 (1951)
(Bakelite tube table radio)

RCA X-551 (1951)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Like the song from the movie of the same name; this radio is..."Lovely to Look At!" From the year before the movie's release this '51 RCA is in almost like-new condition! And, it plays as pretty as it looks! Not the usual brown, but a unique very dark chocolate brown Bakelite case (RCA calls it 'maroon'). It has been electronically restored, tuned, aligned and, a new power cord added. Wow, what a beauty! A handsome radio to be sure! I hate to sound so darn repetitious, but, yes, this RCA is another 10+ on the ol' Jim Dennis "Scale of Beauty!" If you'd like additional pics please let me know.
