Model 46-1226-125??
#6

Actually most people prefer non-phono versions and the 37-610 table or tombstone are very nice radios. The 42-380 is a very beautiful radio when restored so you already have a nice collection. The 42-380 will typically have a dial plate that has shrunk, they make replacements but the shrinking/cracking is standard for the type of material these faceplates were made out of. The 42-380 has a photo-finish around the speaker grille area (the zebra/burled walnut look on the sides and above the grille) be very careful with this since you don't want to strip it off if you want to refinish the cabinet. I agree with Zenith I am sure someone will be more than happy to take anyone of these radios off your hand, all are collectable the two non-phono units probably the most collectable.
