Here we have Futurism at its finest! If ever there was a radio that defines 1950’s styling, this is it! North America was enjoying this post war era of middle class prosperity. Decor design was influenced by the excitement of science and space exploration and reflected vibrant and fun colours. The emphasis was on leisure, comfort and relaxation. How better to relax , in 1959, than listen to your new turquoise accented, futuristic styled, HT202 radio. Indulge your nostalgic side and be the new owner of this great, rare piece of history!

It is a Hallicrafters branded set which was sold in the United States under “CBS and Travler” badges. in Canada, a few were known to be produced with the “Arcadia” name.

This radio is very clean with no chips or cracks. it has been electrically refurbished and an aux cord input has been added for Bluetooth functionality. (This input is completely reversible if you are interested in a more factory original state)
