Atwater Kent 55
#1

I saw an ebay a A K 55 console it was only 20 miles from my home so I bid, I got it for $15 ,it had the out put tube close by or I would not have gone for it , at first I thought I bought an old chassie and fire wood ! When I picked it up I was surprised at the condition the cabinet was in ! Instead of parts I've ended up with another project, The people say it was the best of the three radios they where selling the others were a Silvertone about 1940 console and an 8 tube Zenith console 1941,all sold quickly, the A K was on ebay twice I'm the only one who bid! I don't think I got hurt any .
