Great Grandmother's Philco
#3

Also consider the idea of keeping it. Most of us would love to have a radio our parents, grand parents, or (even rarer) a great grandparent used to own and use for entertainment and news.

Post the model # and some pictures and we'll advise you of what you have, how to restore it yourself, or assist you in finding someone who could do it for you. In the meantime please DO NOT PLUG THE RADIO IN. I know it is tempting, but being that old, and sitting for so long, it might damage an expensive part in the radio; plus it would be a safety hazard if you don't know what you're doing.
