anyone recognize this radio?
#4

Give the man a cigar.
It is a V16 and yes Don did finish re-capping it.
Was wondering if it was recognizable seeing as there were other similar Gothic style cabinets from the early 30's.
I understand that there only about 5 or 6 made.
Who knows.
Still not sure of its value though.
I know Don had 2 of these and sold one.
I also tracked one down that sold on eBay to a buyer that put it in a museum somewhere.
Myself, I am not impressed with the performance of the radio, but I love the walnut cabinet.
Stay warm guys,
Murf
