Well, sometime I'd like a Red Star radio if only for display.
Jiri Placek at Kutztown has brought at least three that I remember seeing... two were red and one was green. John Hagman bought the first red one I saw and the other two were sold or eventually disappeared.
This is also a beautiful radio from Petro's Youtube channel:

I think I like it better than the Red Star 54's !
