That's a nice looking repair, George. I also do not need to get a radio to look pristine or like it just came out of the box. My feeling is that a radio that has a 70-90 year history will usually look it. I like clean and complete, but not necessarily perfection. I certainly don't look like I did when I was new, so why should my radios?!?! I believe a radio that's used looks it! Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
