This Philco 41-280 is a local find. The guy wants $40 for it. The speaker looks to be in solid shape, and the grill cloth is completely intact. No rust that I can see, and the transformer seems OK across the primary, but the veneer is shot and the photofinish will make me try out my painting skills. Unless I try to take HD photos and make my own decals. Has anyone ever tried that? The cord looks almost new which makes me think I might be looking at someone else's repair job.

I know this is nothing fancy, but now that my oldest daughter is getting a model 19, my youngest is after me for a radio, too.

What do you think? Offer $25 and see what the guy says?
