Quote:Thanks for all the information. In looking at it, looks like the model I have is the 44h (variant).

Now trying to determine what the purchase price was and if it has any value.

It's only a six tube set and floor model so it was what I would call an upper lower end set since it had standard broadcast and three shortwave bands, no idea what the original retail price was but given that the 118H was a $100 set I would guess it was priced less then a 118H originally since the 118 had eight tubes verses six for the 44H, but the 118H had two bands and the 44H had four bands. However the 118's had a push pull power output stage, the 44s had a single ended power output stage, it's hard to figure out but my guess is that the higher audio output power was a higher cost feature then two extra bands. Without a photo, and not knowing it's condition, it's hard to pin down a value, but it would not normally be considered a high dollar set. Like most old radios they are generally worth whatever someone is willing to pay. Electrically restored it is likely a fairly decent performing radio so if you like it there is something there worth restoring for your own use.
