- Notes
- The Arvin Phantom Belle model 568-A is featured in the flier "New 1938 Arvin Radios" from 1937 which emphasizes on the "Phantom Filter Circuit (in "Life" October 18th 1937) and in ads on "ten years of radio progress". Some models feature also Arvin's "Presto-Station-Changer" for selecting one out of 10 stations - like with a telephone dial. But the Arvin Phantom Belle model 568-A has no buttons. It is a smaller table radio in walnut and two-tone ivory and mahogany finish with 5 wrap-around vertical grille bars.

Does anyone recognize this Arvin radio? It has a 518 chassis, and I think that it might be a 518DW. The knobs are not correct (Allied?)
Thank you,
