The list of my radio & TV collection!

It's so much more interesting when a family story follows a particular radio. My Philco 20 was my Dad's parents radio originally. It was never determined if it was bought new. With the years it became 'expendable', and became the radio I found in the garage on the property of my grandparents. It hadn't seen the light of day since the 1950's, and was hung on the wall with heavy wire poked through the veneer arch! I found it when I was 11 years old. That is what sparked the hobby for me way back then.
Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
