I went to a swap meet today and though there was no interest in the same 7 radios I have been trying to get rid of for 3 months, I did buy this Crosley tombstone. I only bought it for the knobs since they are $10 a piece but I am thinking about restoring it. Could not resist it for 10 bucks.

Hey Kirk:
If you decide to restore I have one of those and can offer reference photo's if needed.

I will not be restoring it so if anyone needs parts or the whole thing let me know. I only want the knobs.
