Silvertone 6051 by Airking
#8

For me it would be very hard to part with any of my radios. I have loved listening to radio since I was very young about 7 years old. My grandmother would put on the Admiral radio in the living room and I would listen to it for hours! She always used to listen to 570 am the good guys on WMCA. I would fall asleep listening to it. To this day my Philco 38-116 console radio is on in my bedroom at night and it puts me to sleep. Especially in the cold months. I love radio!  It's funny what you remember from your childhood..... meanwhile you do not remember what you had for dinner the night before.
