Tab, er, Todd, where are you located? Would you mind going into the User Control Panel and adding a location to your profile? Thanks.

The main reason I ask is because I am wondering if the "Lew" or "Lewis" you are referring to is the one I am thinking of...?

Edit: Thanks for the info on the model number shown on the back of the 51 chassis. The 470 and 490 sets stated "Model 470 Superheterodyne" or "Model 490 Superheterodyne." I'm not surprised that your set doesn't say "Model 451" or something like that, since there is no documentation on a 51/4 combination. Like I said before, I feel it is a combination of leftover parts sent out to get rid of excess stock.

The radio and book was brought to a swap meet in huntington W.V. by a dealer who lives in Lexington K.Y. (Terry Layman) but he travels to meets all over so Im not sure exactly where it came from. He had the entire estate/collection from "Lew". I am in Ironton Ohio, I will post some info on my profile soon as I can.
