Well,
My dear Aunt in Wales has identified the model 38 B (from July of 1933) in the gallery, as the radio their family had back in the 30's. She mentioned in particular, it's gold grill cloth that needed to be cleaned with a bellows.
so, . . . needless to say, I would like to get my hands on one. [Image: https://philcoradio.com/phorum/images/sm...n_idea.gif]
I know it will be a pain being a battery model, but it's my heritage and I'm going with it!
