Well this one is new to me ..At least it's my latest radio.
A friend of mine bought some 78 from me about six months ago and yesterday he sent me an email
telling me of this radio. My friend had bought an old gramophone from an add on Kijiji and thought I would be interested in this radio. So I bought it over the phone. $50.00
I picked it up today, and it looks like it is not molested . I will have to redo the sides and top of the cabinet.
but it has the original grill cloth and knobs. it also had this sort of after market antenna which I will try.
I just finished one of these last year and so this one won't be too hard to work on.
It's those Bakelite blocks that I don't like ,but I am getting used to them.
