Another 87 Lowboy? (Bought it!)
#8

Thanks, Jerry!

Tom, this is a 1929 model, maybe just peeking into 1930. Oddly, according to the information here, this design had already been surpassed when Philco brough out it's little brother, the model 65. But, it appears the Super neutrodyne model 87 was popular enough to live on.
Now, if only there was something on the AM spectrum to listen to on weekends besides sports, crappy radio shows, and gabby DJs. FM is where it is at on weekends around here, hence my reason for buying the RCA New Vista Stereo.

No matter where you go, there you are.
