I use a similar Maggie as my garage radio I got from my Radio repairman for $100 all recapped and playing nicely.
He got it from a customer who wanted to scrap it out but it was too nice. Mine also has the newer FM module so I can listen to Lady Gaga when ever I feel the need. A very nice and heavy set. I also used to have another one of these when I lived in Florida.
That one I paid $75 as-is. It was very rough and the sellers had wrapped the blown fuse with aluminum foil to keep it working.
I believe these sold new in late 1940's for up to $600.
