I saw a 33 in a local antique shop, while the faux finish was not bad, and the speaker was still with it, along with the tubes/ However three of the four pieces of pot metal trim were missing from the corners as was the original power switch and bat shaped knob that went with it. The Radiola 33 was a budget set from the get go, it uses the same guts as a Radiola 17 but in a steel and pot metal cabinet rather then a wood one. From what I could find they built and sold a lot of them, something like 150,000, there was also an option to buy one with a set of spindly pot metal legs to make one into a pseudo floor model.
Regards
Arran
