66B (looks like a MB)
#10

So I think I'm done w/it till it's time to polish it out. I didn't glue and nail the trim back on as it will make it more difficult to polish. The grille cloth is from a 60MB as is the trim, it was badly damaged from the previous cabinet work (sanded all most flat). Didn't really like it so much when I was refinishing it but it's starting to grow on me.

Is the rumor true that radio collectors after a long time start to look like their sets???

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
