Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Dan Robinson, who writes:
Two of the best foreign shows on Netflix are Wrong Side of the Tracks, produced in Spain, and The Beauty Queen of Jerusalem, from Israel.
Classic antique radios feature in both.
In Beauty Queen of Jerusalem, a wonderful old tube set appears in a scene set in a shop in old Jerusalem (the left of the shopkeeper).
Someone in Spain must be in love with old classic radios because we see a number of them in different scenes — primarily on a shelf in the shop of one of the main characters, along with a few portable radios. The large radio could be Grundig or any one of a number of other European sets — perhaps SWLing experts can provide the answer.

Can you ID some of these radios? Please comment!
Hey where did all the radio detectives go? 🙂 The middle of the 3 transistors on the shelf looks like an Inter (Spain) Slim Modul 130B (TRP-343B).

SW radios back then would have been prominent in affluent households, and common throughout, being both entertainment and vital information means. I almost wanna resurrect an old tube set like these, or a Grundig, just for grins.
The toob radio on the first pic is a Phillips BE462A.
