1929 Philco Model 86 Restore on Youtube
#46

Arran

I doubt WWII vets drove the prices up.
It is us, collectors, who are in our 60-s, 70-s or maybe even 80s, and some are younger, who are paying those prices.
It is a regular antique collecting.
Else we could say that the prices of DaVinci paintings go up because the last surviving Renaissance people are driving them up.
And those WWII vets often did not have enough space to collect. Their kids do though.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
