An older gentleman friend here in town runs a shop, and has this interesting piece in storage. Icon_eek  My guess is it's a custom job someone very expertly put together as a PA system. Any thoughts anyone? Dunno  Can anyone tell what chassis this might be Icon_question

Yeah Sam it just needs a couple of 42 toobs. 10 watts of Philco's Super class A triode connected 42's audio. Just like my 660L
Probably play fine!!!![Image: icon_lol.gif]
One of a kind looks to me, perhaps was converted into a pa system with radio for news and entertament  ? I dont see a speaker perhaps external speakers. Very early boom box that you would have to have a long extenstion cord, ait that right Kirk. Its a cool piece.
I like it
To bad top cover and door is missing 
But why the battery in it ?
