Atwater-Kent 72

Check one radio off my Bucket List! I just picked up the little nine tube console today in Canton, OH: the home of the AK consoles with sawn-off legs. This console is complete, the legs are intact, and it uses a model H chassis and I think a model N speaker if I recall right. Speaker weighs about as much as the chassis, but looks good and intact. Hopefully the speaker is good as I've had my share of headaches with the AK speakers over the years, usually with the later AK radios.

P.S. This came from the same guy who has the four Philco 20's and it was another "Never for sale" radio. I traded a few little items he wanted and managed to snag this radio and he is moving to a 'maybe' on one of the Philco 20's by the way he talked today.

   

No matter where you go, there you are.
