Zenith H511Y Bakelite Tabletop (1951)

The style of the Zenith H511's is one of my all-time favorites, and I finally found one! I had seen these for sale many times, in black, white, brown, and even green! This is the nicest example I have seen, and it was the cheapest! I had seen a destroyed one with a huge crack in the bakelite case just the other day for $50, and I only paid $23 for mine.

The case is in great shape, and I have already polished it up. The chrome piece in the center of the radio was polished with several kinds of metal polish to try and bring out the best shine.

Electronically, the radio has its cord cut. I'm sure that means it needs some work.
