1930 Model 77 Lowboy
#4

Thanks for the posts guys.

First let me say that I feel like a moron for powering up the console. I read the link on another post while I was waiting for my initial post to be approved. I won't make that mistake again. I have been on my rotation and any of you that know how nursing rounds work will know that my time the last few days has been limited to the hospital and sleep. After today I will post some photos. Let me also say that I have no plans to sell the lowboy. It wasn't my grandma's but my grandfathers and he is a veteran that died in the 80s and I have very little to remember him. This will be a perfect keepsake.

Also, I'm not so sure now that the radio is a 77. When I can get some photos put up here I look forward to the in flow of info. This is a great little sub community and after reading many of the posts in the phorum I wish that every facet of collector items had such a following. Thank you for the honesty and information. Give me one more 12 hour shift and I promise I will give you some photos to critique. Any certain angles I should take or areas that need special attention when I take the photos?

Thanks
