Model A300 tabletop tube radio, manufactured in Los Angeles, California, circa 1946. This classic mid-century “waterfall” style radio features a warm wood cabinet with rounded architectural sides, a horizontal slatted speaker grille, three ribbed knobs, and a Hoffman-branded tuning dial.

The design bridges late Art Deco styling and early Mid-Century Modern form, with a sculptural cabinet that displays well on a bookshelf, credenza, desk, or sideboard. The back label identifies the radio as Model A 300 by Hoffman Radio Corp. of Los Angeles, California.

The cabinet has an attractive aged patina with minor surface scuffs, finish wear, and age-related marks. The original cardboard backplate is present and shows wear, staining, paper loss, and edge deterioration. Interior tube-radio components are visible in the photos.

Functional status is untested. Includes brown power cord and American plug. As with all vintage electronics, this radio should be inspected and serviced by a qualified technician before use. Offered as a decorative vintage radio or restoration piece.
