My totally revamped bucket list.
#5

I already got two of my radios checked off the list already. I nabbed a 90 lowboy yesterday and I kinda forgot about my Philco Grandfather Clock radio I half own with my mom. Icon_smile That has the 70 chassis in it. Icon_biggrin I was hoping to talk the same guy I got my 90 off of out of his Philco chairside. I can't recall the model right now, but it has the 90 or 91 chassis in it with the separate speaker. Sadly, he won't let it go as he keeps saying he is going to put it in his home. The finish is totally gone off one side of the speaker cabinet now and is starting to flake off of the legs of the chairside unit. Another year or so and it will start getting peeling veneer at the rate things are going in that back room.

No matter where you go, there you are.
