I have a friend who collects and deals in antiques and lately he has been buying up small estates and selling alot of stuff to a film studio. I called to chat with him and he mentioned one item the studio hadn't gone for from a recent estate sale was a Philco radio with "A big round glass dial". Well, that didn't tell me much, so I decided to give it a look. Turns out it is a Philco 38-4 with the 'conecentric tuning'! Radio was in decent shape and since I didn't have one of this style in my collection, I bought it.
One question: Did the 38-4 originally have a back? Mine seems to have clips on the cabinet for a back that is no longer there. I scored a couple other things along with teh radio, but those are more for the Bar and Grill phorum. I am running out of room and I STILL keep picking up radios. What's wrong with me?

No matter where you go, there you are.
