RCA Victor, Model 9W 501, c.1950

Dark wood, Montreal made, RCA radio-turn table console from 1953.

RCA Victor: Model 9W 501 (c.1950), 78 x 55 x 36cm. Musée des ondes Emile Berliner.

This RCA Victor combination radio-record player demonstrates modernist design in the postwar period. It includes space for vinyl records on either side of the speaker. The radio and turntable could disappear behind a wooden facade. This historically styled cabinetry is reminiscent of earlier radio cabinets that hid the receiver.
