Luxurious English radiogram with Scott radio and integrated turntable (c. 1938–1942) Magnificent corner radiogram made in England in the late 1930s, fitted with a multi-band H.H. Scott radio (USA) and a three-speed turntable integrated into the upper compartment. It is an original period set, not modified, representative of high-end music equipment from before World War II. Cabinet Made of solid walnut/mahogany wood, with deep hand-carved detail and Georgian Revival-style mouldings combined with late Art Deco elements. The corner design, relatively uncommon, optimizes space and denotes workshop-made craftsmanship. Features: Upper doors with carved panels. Upper compartment intended for the turntable and record storage. Lower doors vertically fluted, typical of luxury English radiograms of the 1930s. Interior intact, original solid wood structure, no plywood substitute. The finish, symmetry, and quality of carving indicate professional English manufacture, likely from a workshop specializing in high-end radio furniture. Radio H.H. Scott (USA) radio, a benchmark brand in high-fidelity in the pre-war era. All-Wave / Multi-Band Receiver model, with three tuning scales: High shortwave (16–49 meters). Medium shortwave (49–120 meters). Medium wave (AM 550–1600 kHz). Original front panel with band indicators in color and controls: Treble Bass Volume Phono TV (historic input, very uncommon, present only between 1938 and 1941) Valve technology, original transformer, and cotton/elastic wiring, all characteristic of high-end devices from before 1945. Turntable Integrated turntable in the upper compartment, with 33 / 45 / 78 rpm speed selector, platter with original felt, and a metal tonearm with crystal cartridge. By construction and design, it corresponds to a Garrard or Collaro model, English brands of reference in luxury radiograms of the era. Period The complete set—cabinet, radio, and turntable—dates to 1938–1942, a period when luxury music appliances combined English furniture with American high-fidelity radios. Condition The cabinet retains its original structure, carving, mouldings, and compartments. The radio and turntable retain all their components, with no signs of substitution or later adaptation. Overall very well preserved, with patina appropriate to its age. Historical interest A representative piece of pre–World War II luxury radiograms, combining: - High-quality English handcrafted furniture. - American Scott radio, a prestigious name in high-fidelity engineering. - Three-speed turntable, prepared for the emerging standards of the era. A rare ensemble, especially outside the United Kingdom, highly valued by collectors of antique radio, English furniture, and historic audio equipment.
