Ekco A23 Dark brown Bakelite rectangular case with 5 preset station selector pushbuttons (3medium 2 long) ECCH35 EF39 EBC33 EL33 AZ31 Long/medium/short wavebands UK 1945
E K Cole who pioneered the production of bakelite rdaios in the UK under the brand name of EKCO. Their early round sets designed by Wells Coates, icons of the Art Deco period are highly prized collectors items and may command a price of £700 to £900. An A23 is not so collectible but recently one was sold on ebay for £102 but as with any bakelite receiver, condition is critical and you might have been lucky and successfully bid for one a week or so later for £24!
