Oh my, you appear to have found an early 50 at that! Shame about the speaker, though. Little kid damage I would say. I found a model 50 last fall, but it is the later version in its own style of cabinet.

   

Good luck on the house buyout tonight!

I think you have a 51 which was made later than the 50. I have heard of early 51's with the 50 chassis.

I'm starting not to like you John,
Why cant I ever get radios locally?
All the ones by me are outrageously priced and unrestored.

I like your radio though

Yes, it's a model 51. A unique cabinet ONLY fund in the model 51. These sets are not a great performer, being an entry level set.

BUT they are a very attractive and unique set!!!
