Doug is spot on with his analysis. Icon_thumbup

I think you guys know which one of the two sets being discussed I would pick...and it wouldn't be the Brand Z set. Icon_wink

That said, I actually wouldn't mind owning a Walton tombstone...but I'll be darned if I'm going to pay $3000+ for one. A person can get a real radio for that kind of money - Scott, McMurdo Silver, or Philco 37 or 38-690 - and may even have change left over.
