Is this Philco 42-400 worth anything?
#1

I retrieved this from my grandmother's house when we moved her out about 5 or so years ago. It's been in my garage ever since. I won't even dare to turn it on since I know that you can damage the unit if the system is not looked over powering it on.

The radio sat in the basement of my grandmother's house in Bayonne NJ for decades and possibly suffered some slight water damage on the bottom. It looks like my grandfather may have painted it as well.

I was hoping it would be worth something when I hauled it out of her house, but have found little in the ways of determining a value.

At this point I would be willing to sell it just to get it out of here. But I also don't want to be taken, if any part of it might be worth something.

Does anyone have any idea what it might be worth? It's not in perfect condition.

Thanks,
Jim Makowski
