DeWald Model A-501 "Harp"

Red DeWald "Harp"
The DeWald model A-501 is known to collectors as the "Harp", because of its shape.  It actually resembles a lyre rather than a harp, but most collectors wouldn't know a lyre if they fell over one.  It is the most figural of the Catalin radios, but is not generally considered a beautiful design.  In the marbleized dark red color, though, it can be quite attractive.  The A-501 is commonly found in yellow.  In brown, as seen below, it is fairly hard to find, and in red it is quite rare.  It is also seen with two styles of grill cloth.  The cloth in the red radio is by far the nicer, and less often seen of the two.
