Update with new pics.
Thanks Jerry! I have seen only a couple of these and figured I couldn't let this go by. Yes, the cabinet needs some work. Looks like a coat of shellac was put on it at some point. The guy I bought it from said it was his great great grandfather's, and it looks pretty much unmolested other than the case.
You are correct, Arran. It is a plant "A" Chicago built radio. Tube line up is: 6A7, 6D6, 75, 43, 25Z5, and K49c ballast. Super het. Here is a link to RM
