Manufactured from 1936 through 1939, this set is notable for being made out of three different plastics. Available in seven different color combinations, this one sports an ivory Plaskon case with a yellow Bakelite top and a yellow grill of Tenite. Tenite is a plastic affected by heat and warpage of Tenite parts is very common. The grille bars on this set have minimal warping. The sunburst pattern in the dial indicates that it is from the later production run of this set (earlier versions had a plainer patterned dial).

Shipping
These radios have a very heavy chassis and it is held up from the bottom of the cabinet, making it susceptable to easy breakage. For this reason the radio will be shipped in two sperate boxes, cabinet in one and chassis in the other.
