Description

This is a Philips valve radio - BX316U - from the 1950s, made in Holland. There is a Bakelite front panel in front of the speaker. In working order, short wave/ am with replacement cord.
The Philips Company was founded in 1891, by Gerard Philips and his father Frederik Philips. Frederik, a banker based in Zaltbommel, financed the purchase and setup of an empty factory building in Eindhoven, where the company started the production of carbon-filament lamps and other electro-technical products in 1892. This first factory has since been adapted and is used as a museum.
