Does your top have the Norman Bel Geddes tag on the inside? Happy to take of it if you can use it. While my top was in traction I make quick plywood top so I could still use the set . Decided to to put the old one back on and take her for a cruise. I think one of the best things about this chairside is after it been on for a little while you flip the top up and you get a very pleasant blast of warm air. Very nice on a day like today. Here in near Philcocentral we just got about a foot and a half snow. Also looking at the twin V arrangements of the lit filament of the 80 and 47 tubes plus the glowing cathodes of the 24A's & 27 just doing their jobs. Taking a rf wave in to something you can hear. All pretty amazing.

ps how's the work on the gallery coming?
Do you have idea on when it will be
receiving visitors again? Won't hold
you to it but am curious. You can
tell me I won't tell anyone!
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
