Mantola 27
#4

All I know is that this radio was love at first sight when I saw it at a local antique shop I used to frequent before it shut down. I loved the way the dial and volume knob were on one side of the cabinet and those tubes being upside down all screamed 'early tombstone radio' to me at the time. There was supposedly a person interested in the radio, but he had not put cash down and I was broke. So, my mom slapped down the payment right there and then as she loved the radio as well!

No matter where you go, there you are.
