Bakelite?
#4

Nice Radio Joe! I have a similar GE radio here from that era. I think the " ebay" type radio folks call that "beetled plastic", and or, "swirled" type plastic. In any "case" ( no pun intended), they sure do look nice when cleaned-up abit!! Nice find indeed!! If the old clock inside is made by telechron"?,.. sometimes, just removing the rear clock metal housing, blow it out with air, and add a small shot of WD-40 gets them making perfect time again if the motor is still good & relubed also! Definately worth recapping & keeping in your collection indeed!Ive saved a few of them over the yrs! Congrats on your find!! Icon_wink
