Did you find your 51/4 combination at the Huntington meet? From the photos I've seen online, it looks like their meets/auctions seem to bring out some nice sets. I am going to try to attend at least one of their meets next year.
Yes I did get it there but it was bought from another collector who lives in Graffton W.V. You would enjoy the meet/auction I'm sure, at least 75% of my radio's came from there. If you look at the summer heat photo's on there website my wife and I are the two loading the red van in the last picture. Thanks for the info on the books owner.
