My latest repair project Admiral 20X122

They had IIRC a 17" version later that is supposed to be the largest mass-produced Bakelite object ever.

This one is bigger, but the one you are referring to is probably a rectangular CRT model.






It's too bad they didn't actually produce this futuristic pop-up Bakelite TV/radio/phono:

For sure they had a bakelite 16" rectangular console that was bigger than this 10". Likely adapted to 17" when they became the standard.

I have the Admiral 26R12 which is a 16" Bakelite console. Admiral also built a 14" version of the same set. Maybe that the 14" set had even more Bakelite in it! It is actually sitting right next to me now.
