Re: Green Ekco AD65
That is nice! I can see why people like the different colours, especially when you have a large collection of Bakelite radios, all in the usual brown ‘walnut’ finish, a bit of colour to break up the sea of brown is most welcome!
The AD65 is one of 2 round Ekco’s that I have yet to find, my A22 and AD75 are the only 2 that I bought as good condition sets, although the A22 has a crack in the dial. I also have 2 AC76’s, which were both bought as damaged, the black one looked like it had been kicked where the 3 controls are, and that took a fair bit of repairing! The brown one has a crack at the 2 o clock position that runs front to back, and the bar across the speaker is missing.
The fake A22 in the green I think is too green! I much prefer the lighter pastel shade of your AD65.
