Here’s a radio from the 1953 French film (whose English title is) “The Wages of Fear“. Can anyone identify it?

Yes, It looks like a modern version spruced up HRO5TA1… Check the Western Museum on all things for National Radio receivers.
Apart of the radio aspect, this is a really good movie.
Certainment! Driving a big truck along a cliff would be scary enough without the dynamite part! In fact, that is the only part of the film I remember. Yves Montand portrays fearful very well.

Right on Les! An oldie and a beauty!
May have misspelled it:
HRO-5A1
Not sure of the model, but that’s the biggest crystal I’ve ever seen sitting on top of it! I wonder what the frequency is?
Yes,I was wondering also,perhaps a crystal transplant !!!!! OR maybe to cut down on vibes
National HRO-5A1 (?)
