Zenith Model 6-G-601-M
#3

That is a very cool radio with a ton of history, but it's going to go high and as Mike said the shipping is crazy.

Unfortunately the family it belonged to most likely had no one left who wanted it.  Someone on ARF came up with this possible owner:

Perhaps when he was a POW another G.I. acquired the radio, but it's hard to say, but I do hope it goes to a good home.  It seems like I recall seeing this same radio, or one marked up in almost the same style a couple of years ago on eBay.
