I was thinking of experimenting with different color bulbs in this radio like with red, or blue or even green to see what kinds of different effects I can get from the radio dial. What do you think? It would be kind of like how some people put different color bulbs into old stereo receivers to make the ordinarily white glow tuner into a more interesting blue or green glow dial.
The original lamp was probably white or clear.
