General Electric


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.
