Blaupunkt "Stockholm 22250" Radio


And now for something completely different.  If you're looking for the quintessential audiophile accessory to complete your mid-century/ modern habitat, this may be it.  There's nothing like the velvet sound, especially if you're into jazz, of tubes and Blaupunkt.  In addition, the "rebirth of cool" wooden case and cockpit-like lit dial are just so good looking!  When introduced, this table model radio sold for 360.00 DM.  With the currency and inflation conversion that would be about 1,100.00 CAN$ today.  It was, and still is, top of the line.  26" l., 8.5" h., 11" h.  German, c. 1961  SOLD
