Addison
Addison Model 5D and 5E, AM and Shortwave, available in various catalin color combinations.
(example of dramatic marbling), 1946.
Addison Model 2, white and
marbled black/white plaskon*
and a maroon/white plaskon version, 1940's,
Canadian.
Model C400, in mottled robin-egg blue beetle. A midget set that was made in various colors. The US General Electric model GD-500 is nearly identical,
only the volume and tuning knob were different and it did not have the small hood above the tuning dial.
Not radios, but too nice to not share... Advertising ashtrays put out by Canada General Electric for
Radiotron tubes (the base of the tubes
say, "Made in Canada"). Two are made of marbled and spotted Beetle plastic and the other marbled
red/green/black bakelite.
