The Cabinet of this radio is made of Bakelite. The tube compliment is the following ECC85, EM80, ECH81, EF89, EF85, EABC80, EL86, EL84, EZ80 These sets were sold world wide and I paid $20 Canadain Dollars for mine but its NOT for sale. Its didn't work when I first bought it and was in rough condition. After 18 hours worth of work 6 replaced tubes it works and looks great!
