French vintage radio at Otley, West Yorkshire
Hi. Whilst out on my travels, I spotted a vintage radio of French manufacture in Otley, West Yorkshire at a clock repairers located in a shopping arcade near the parish church.
The cabinet is wood (upright) and has a distinctive sunrise pattern that ends in a "T" on the ends of each sun ray. The valves have a French manufacture on them. I could not get much information on it with regards manufacture name, and the number 428 is on the chassis (according to the shop owner), nor could I get an immediate photograph of it. Perhaps local radio collectors may get to visit the shop? Cheers Mike |

No Lawrence it is different again from the photograph on that site.
I will try and get a photograph of the radio sometime. He just has it on display, but I do not have any room to put it in my house. The sale is nothing to do with me, I just noticed it whilst wondering about. Cheers Mike |
