Back in Feb I scored a nice model 95 Highboy, see earlier post.  Saved from a guy that likes chopping them up into Liquor cabinets.  Icon_thumbdown Icon_thumbdown   Yesterday I found its brother, a model 76 Highboy.  Same cabinet, different chassis inside.  I believe there was four different radios you could get in this cabinet back in 1929.  As with the model 95, this one is in great shape original finish with a tapestry cloth in fantastic shape.  This one has a bit of veneer peal on the bottom of both sides, but not too bad and easily fixed.  Could not pass it up for only $40. Bonus, this one still had a good RCA UX245 in it.  Icon_thumbup Icon_thumbup   Issue is, I don't have room for all of these consols.  Plan to get them both running and then will have to let one go.
