Got this today finally! An A52CK Philco clock radio.

The guy said restored but geeze [Image: http://www.antiqueradios.com/forums/imag...lleyes.gif]

Stripping it 98%, leaving spots of original lacquer on it and then painting brown paint with a small brush around the darker toned areas is not restoration........

Will have to redo in the spring. I still love it and thanks again Jim. Icon_shh
