Offer accepted.  Now I own this Atwater Kent 55C in the Kiel table.  It'll have to sit for a while since i have too many other projects in process and another big one to start soon.  Radio and cabinet are not in bad condition.

I presume you're talking about the pink colored instruction sheet?  I will remove it as it is held in place by only 2 staples which I will want to remove anyway.  Then I can scan it for you.
