Possible 37-84
#3

Thanks. Hopefully I will be able to get it for a fair price. Cathedral radios are treated like gold in my area and even when I do see a cheap one, my truck would guzzle 40-50 dollars worth of fuel to go get it. So, I am weighing that as well. For such high production numbers, Philco cathedrals and tombstone radios are practically non-existant around my immediate area. I have only stumbled on roughly three the whole time I have been collecting for sale in shops. Two were type 89s and one was a tombstone.

No matter where you go, there you are.
