I have this radio's earlier 6 tube relative, the 642A and it has a fair amount of ornateness to it as well. Seems Stromberg loved that pressed wood decoration during those few years. I love it too. This is only the second complete Stromberg-Carlson I have seen from that era. Sadly, I have run across several gutted and converted 642A cabinets over the years and a guy I know has a few battered chassis from other models. Seems these radios didn't get to survive around my area like they seem to further out west.
No matter where you go, there you are.
