My brother gave me one of these Silvertone sets that he got from someone that at work. Mine is in horrible condition but I plan to restore it. It must have been stored in a barn and fortunately it has the lid that helped protect the dial and phono/wire recorder. It also came with a few spools that are labeled something like "Christmas 1949", "Wedding 1951", and "South Pacific". I have a Webster Chicago wire recorder that I started to restore and got busy with other projects. Hopefully in the next couple of months I can finish it up and listen to those spools.
