Westinghouse H-126
This is a 1946 Westinghouse H-126. Nicknamed the "Little Jewel"/"Refrigerator" radio, its shape does somewhat resemble a refrigerator of the period. It measures approximately 9 inches high (not counting the handle) and 6 inches wide. They came in several different colors such as green or burgundy. This is the ivory model. It's considered a portable set, but it only operates from AC. It's portable because it can be easily carried from room to room because of it's size and carrying handle. (Never pick up an old radio by it's handle!) Despite the small size, the tone is surprisingly good.
