I bought this piece off eBay. It was pick up only in Columbus Ohio. Amazingly a week later I had someone coming from Cincinnati and they said they would grab it on the way to my house. It arrived safe and sound. I think it is good enough condition that I do not need to restore the cabinet. I have all but 3 glasses in this set. It is not my new side table. I will restore it some day....

Why are the glasses empty?
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

Empty?
Probably because I know that I will knock it over into the radio chassis... Icon_lolno

The top is taken off, then flipped over? Or how does that work?

Echoing Ron. Great Find Kirk!! Neat piece with a whiff of RadioBar without having to spend 5- 10 Large on e-Pay! Is this a RadioBar piece? The glasses look so.

Would that mean the cabinet was "roached out?" Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
