The Phenix

Here is a French Phenix radio, circa 1953-1955.  This is a small model, only 28 cm wide (about 11 inches).  The case is metal, with a yellow/gold snake skin pattern on it.  The knobs have a brilliant gold insert.  The dial glass floats out front, and is marked with many European cities.

The style and shape are somewhat similar to the famous SNR 52 and 55, but those are much larger radios.

I have also put a photo of the logo in the gallery, one can certainly see a stylized bird rising in the logo.  Click here to see it.
