RCA 75X17 "Oriental" (1948)
(wood tube table radio)

RCA 75X17 "Oriental" (1948)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

These were hand painted sets, unusual and very pretty. This one is black, shiny, no dings or cracks. The hand painted areas are raised Oriental motifs with bamboo and various scenes in muted colors. Behind the clear dial glass is also a gold toned flying bird, leaves, and pagoda. I don't see any missing parts, flaking, or damage. Chassis was rebuilt and works fine. All original paper labels are in place on the bottom (see photo). The dial is lighted with a bright red indicator on a clear Lucite pointer. This is a pretty, rare, and in my opinion better looking than the 75X18 which was Chinese red. I don't think you will find these often!
