The Stromberg needed a lot of glue and needed to be refinished, my sister found it at the end of a Driveway with a 'free" sign attached. The S//W I bot from an elderly gentleman in Alabama. He was a "true gent" very old school. He was nearing the end of his years and was selling his stuff. He had done the cabinet work, he had worked on the chassis but it needed a little help. He was looking for a good home for his radios, I am trying to do him right.

These types of folks can be great resources for the collector as they have a lot of knowledge and if their kids do not want their radios frequently they will sell them to a good steward for very short money.
