Lots O Philcos at K-town.. My haul
#1

Well this was a long day. Started at 7:00 this morning and there were lots of people buying and selling. I perused the aisles and found many nice radios for great prices.
I cant remember everything I bought but I know I got 9 philcos a Silvertone tombstone 1850, and a Zenith. I only bought the zenith because the woman said she was going to paint it... I gave her the money and left quietly... I got a really nice 90 that only needs little bits of gluing here and there, a 70 that will need a minor TLC, (3) 610 bullets, another 41-22CL, a big ol' 16B, a trutone 727 and?? I cant remember. I passed on an 89 for $70, a 60 for $60 and a 118B for $40. Not one philco chairside at the meet! Icon_sad

And to answer all your questions... no 690's anywhere.
Met up with a few forum guys and spent hours chatting and dealing.
Tomorrow should be another fun day. I left before the bonfire though.

found a few "the fishers" see pic, sorry Ron Icon_sad

Last was the guy who ripped out the radio guts and made them into doll houses...... see pic
