DESCRIPTION: Doesn’t get better than this if you’re hungry for the yellow stuff! True yellow is one of the rarest of the original molded colors for radios of this period. This is not yellow beige or yellowed ivory or gold-ish butterscotch-y yellow. It is yellow. Yellow. Yellow. Yellow. This is one of the only yellow 5C22Y’s I’ve seen in almost 10 years although I have known they existed. Tabletop tube AM clock radio alarm manufactured by Motorola in 1957-1958 in excellent+ working and near mint physical condition. Picks up AM stations clearly and loudly up and down the dial without need of external antenna attachment. Cabinet is in excellent near mint condition with no cracks, splits, or major scratches. Original factory molded color not repainted no over spray no touch up. None needed. This radio is over 60 years old!  Motorola label on front speaker grill is in excellent condition. The knobs are in excellent condition. The clear dial face has no stress cracks, hazing, yellowing or dings. No broken attachment tabs. Please see the photo close-up. No missing ink, smudges, or rub-off on clock dial lettering. The tuning dial works fine and smooth no slipping. All paper and wax capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents, so this radio has another 50+ years or more of playing time! The clock works and keep accurate time for a mechanical analog design. The alarm works. The buzzer works. The clock and alarm set function work. There is an appliance timer function in back. The tubes are working fine. Original backing board is in excellent condition with crisp square corners and edges. Bottom factory label is in excellent condition. Little round factory inspection sticker on bottom  is intact. All out-of-spec resistors have been replaced with modern correct value and voltage equivalents. There is no loud or pervasive hum.
