Gorgeous, classic mid-century design by one-time leading brand Zenith. Model appears to be L5222W from 1952 production, but original stamp is somewhat unclear. Cabinet is all original factory-molded Bakelite and factory painted in vanilla cream. Not repainted, no over spray, no touchup – none needed. All original factory metal film trim pieces and the knobs are in excellent condition, no rub off or peeling.

Cabinet and knobs are in excellent vintage condition: no cracks or breaks in cabinet; there are several small chips and scratches in paint, some marks and age-related wear, oxidation of metal parts and screws; clear plastic dial covers are undamaged but have some minor smudges; clock face is slightly rotated – this appears to be from original production. Knobs and dials are securely attached and operational. See photos for details of condition.
