I don't think I've ever been close to a Stewrt Warner with a black dial. But what got me intetrested in old radios in the 1st. place was my dad's Philco 42-1008. Then, almost two years ago I saw this 41-255 at an antique store that's a three minute walk from where I live and I thought, "Hey, that sliderule dial reminds me of dad's old Philco." It was priced at $35 but I talked the man down to $25. I still would've paid $35 for it. Beautiful set, and if it sounded even close to the '1008, well... But I've come to appreciate earlier sets as well. I apologize, guys, I didn't mean to hijack or derail this thread about the '250. That and the '255 are really attractive units, and I bet they're great performers too.

Best Regards,
Mike
