The FADA model 1000 Catalin radio ranks among the design icons of the
20th Century and is highly desired by collectors.

Why such popularity? You can sum it up in two words: style and Catalin.

Description
The synthetic Catalin cabinet epitomizes 1940s Streamline design. Its sleek,
rounded lines suggest speed and practicality, hallmarks of streamlined
industrial design from those years. My Fada Bullet came from an antique
store in Michigan and restored to near new condition except for the
desirable butterscotch color ...  Which was originally yellow.
