Zenith...over rated or not!
#35

Quote: but I'll be getting a Brand Z 9S262 at the end of this month, and possibly a 5S29 as well.
The 9S262 was my first shutter dial/motor drive Zenith find. I found it years ago at a flea mkt in Ohio and at the time I didn't even realize it had those features. It has a lot of sentimental value now and still has a spot in my displayed collection.

The 5S29 is just a real pretty little 1936 tombstone that had a small role in the 2009 movie Public Enemies:

I used to have a 5S29 but the cabinet was in pretty bad shape so I eventually traded it off many years back. A couple of years ago I decided I liked the styling enough to try and find another one if the price was ever right. Then I was looking over radios in my garage for a Kutztown trip and moved a large set to discover a very nice 5S29 I had forgotten about tucked away behind it! As soon as I saw it I recognized when and where I bought it, but it was like Christmas finding a radio on your wish list without even leaving home Icon_crazy
