1933-34 Philco 89B Restoration
#22

Last post, showed the radio up and running. I patched a couple pieces of missing wood in the upper part of the grill, did some touch-up work, and gave the cabinet a new coat of toner over the original, and a new grill cloth from Richmond Designs. It went to a new owner just before I left for my trip earlier in January. New owner is really happy, and I'm glad to start thinning out my workshop, and make a little money off the hobby. Here's some glamour shots before it went to its new home.
