Net worth
#5

I just "won a Model 95. It's from 1929 and is about a 5hr round trip from here. The only reason I got it was I had one back like it in the 1970's. The old one was a model 87 with used 26's in the rf stages. The 95 is a much improved set with 24A tube and avc a big deal back early 1930's
If this model 95 had a different cabinet (lowboy) I would not have pursued it. But since I have fond memories of listening to it many years ago I felt compelled to get it. It very well have been my first console set.
Any way you may find someone who has some attachment to that particular set. Although nowdays that going to be tough to find.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
