Help with pricing please
#2

Carolyn,

I'm sorry no one has replied to your post before now. So, I will give you some prices as listed in The Collector's Guide to Antique Radios, 7th edition, by John Slusser.

Incidentally, this book is widely available online and in many antique malls.

These prices should be taken with a grain of salt - they are based on radios "in good condition" with all knobs, speaker, tubes, etc. Radios sell for more on the West Coast than in the midwest. Nevertheless, radios do not always bring "book" price, especially in the current state of the economy.

Philco 511 - $80-105
Philco 42-321 - $40-50
Zenith 12 - $110-145
"Shamrock" is not listed in the Slusser book.
AK 70 - $110-145 (Note: This is complete with console cabinet)

Speakers and horns/drivers are not listed in the book.

I think you should post pictures here. This might help spur some more discussion about these items.
