Philco 1942 radio
#5

Mike

The short question is:

Are you willing to restore the radio, dealing with electronics of it (it is preferable you know something about electricity, but if you don't - we helped people like that, though it will be somewhat difficult and require lots of attention and cautiousness on your part as you are dealing with voltages that can kill) or do you have someone to take care of it or are you looking for someone like that?

But as said before, DO NOT try to plug it in until it gets clean bill of health, it matters not that it lights up and hums, it could go in flames or it could kill the power section and then it is as good as any piece of junk.

And yes - the pictures!
