OFFERED WITH NO RESERVE IS A SUPER EYE-CATCHING CATALINRADIO FROM MOTOROLA, MODEL 51-C. EVERY SQUARE INCH IS FILLED WITHINTENSE SWIRLING COLORS AND EVEN THE ELEGANT GRILL HAS SWIRL TO TIE ITIN. THE MOTOROLA’S CASE HAS A WONDERFUL REFLECTIVE SHINE THOUGHI HAVE NOT POLISHED THIS RADIO. THIS IS A RELISTING WITH MY THANKS TO AN EXPERT EBAYER WHO COLLECTS ONLY CATALIN RADIOS AND WHO POINTED OUT A REPAIR AT THE LOWER BACK RIGHT SCREW HOLE - THE LAST TWO CL...OSEUP PICTURES SHOW A FLATTENED TRIANGLE-SIZED PIECE THAT WAS EXPERTLY RE-ATTACHED. OTHER THAN THAT, THERE ARE NO CRACKS, CHIPS OR HAIRLINES WITH JUST A VERY FEW LIGHT SCRATCHES. THE MATCHING TRIM HAS MELLOWED TO AN ATTRACTIVEBUTTERSCOTCH PATINA – BOTH THE VERTICAL PROTRUDING GRILL AND HEXAGON-STYLEDKNOBS ARE ALSO IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO PROBLEMS. THE ORIGINAL MASONITE BACK AND MOST OF THE BOTTOM LABEL ARE PRESENT. I’VEINCLUDED LOTS OF PICTURES FOR YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE. THIS RADIO IS FROMMY PERSONAL COLLECTION. PLEASE CHECK MY FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE. IT'S A SMALLERSET, MEASURING AROUND 9” WIDE, 5.75” TALL AND 4.75” DEEP INCLUDING THE KNOBS(BUT NOT THE BACK). THE BACK COVER IS LOOSE AS I DON’T HAVE THE RIGHTSCREWS TO ATTACH IT FIRMLY. EVEN THOUGH TURNING ON AND PLAYING CATALINRADIOS IS NOT RECOMMENDED, THIS MOTOROLA WORKS FINE WITH GOOD SELECTIVITY ANDNO HUM. THE RADIO WAS SERVICED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER SEVERAL YEARS AGOAND IS SOLD WITH NO WARRANTY – I DON’T RESTORE RADIOS AND CANNOT GUARANTEE THATAFTER SHIPPING IT WILL STILL WORK. ALL OLD ELECTRONICS ARE SOLD AS IS. MAILING VIA UPS GROUND. I WILL PAY EXTRA FORPROFESSIONAL PACKING AND FULL INSURANCE, BUYER JUST PAYS BASIC SHIPPINGCHARGES.
