RCA C15-3 floor model
#12

Richard, since this is an older thread and your original Photobucket link no longer works (in your first post above), would you care to post a photo of your C15-3?

Let me also say that Doug Houston knew his stuff. One would do well to read carefully and heed what he had to say regarding RCA (and Philco for that matter). I don't know why Radiomuseum, for instance, cannot grasp the concept of model years but insists on listing radios by approximate date of first manufacture instead - which has only created confusion among the radio collecting community. Those who worship at the "altar" of Radiomuseum insist the first date of manufacture is correct "because Radiomuseum says so and is all-powerful and omniscient". I (and Doug, too, when he was alive) believe otherwise.

I don't own any of Doug's radios, but I am honored to now be the caretaker of his collection of RCA Red Books.
