1956 Bush VHF61   (valve)
British Bakelite at it's best.  Personally I think Bush got it well and truly right with this design,  with excellent performance and a classy cabinet layout.  A valve radio with FM coverage. This example as you can see is in tip top order,  and deserves a prominent spot in your home.  With it's internal aerials for both VHF FM and AM you should be able to locate this almost anywhere with good results.  No damage,  very glossy and original.  It has had a full overhaul and I suspect is now a better performer than it was in 1956.   The magic eye has also been replaced.

Antenna - internals with sockets.
Dimensions 16" wide, 11" high, 8" deep

1956 Bush VHF62  (valve)
Very much the same radio internally as the VHF61 above,  this was the wooden cabinet version.    Again  very well preserved and it has had the full overhaul in our workshop.    Bush spared no expense on their early model VHF radios,  they added an extra valve as a second IF amplifier which makes them go really well on FM.   All depends if you want a curvy bit of original finish wood or some glossy Bakelite.    It is nice to have a choice!     
Frequency Coverage  VHF FM, LW and MW
Antenna - internals with sockets.

We have another VHF62 which is basically identical if anyone would like a pair.

1952 Bush DAC90A Ivory   (valve) 
This is lovely.   It has that "new" glossy shine to the cabinet,  just like a fresh chestnut out of its shell.    Also nice for once to find a white model free from any stress cracks on the top of the case   Excellent audio and performance for a compact valve radio,  all you need to do is plug it in,  wait a minute for the warm up and enjoy.    There are still stations broadcasting on LW & MW in the UK and many things to twiddle into after dark from Europe.   
Frequency Coverage LW/MW

1954 Bush DAC90A Mk3   (valve) 
Here we have the later DAC90A version,  electrically identical to the earlier models  -  the only differences being cosmetic and a change of some of the component manufacturers.  The circuit is more or less identical.   They carried on making the DAC90A until about 1957 and it was most certainly the best selling valve radio of the 1950's,  if not of all valve radios made in Britain.    Again a top quality example,  fully overhauled and ready to play.
