Very nice Russ, like Kirk those older sets are starting to interest me...

Yep. Radios prior to 1924 and all of the battery supers (less RCA) are the ones most radio collectors are looking for   - - -   - - Don't tell anybody!!

The original tubes are hard to find and may cost more than the radio.

To illustrate this - I just finished (yesterday) a Radiola III and a Balanced Amp. Both are being used as displays for the WD-11s and tipped WD-11s which are worth more than the radios. - - - I suppose that I could just make a stand for the tubes.

Amazing stuff - I'm fascinated by early radio apparatus, and how the technology changed in the prewar period as it became more common to own a receiver.
