A Short Distance From Phil to Phool
#3

Uffda Wrote:After losing out on a great "Buy It Now", because I took a couple of minutes
to closely examine the listing, I quickly pounced on the Philco 70 for $79.

The title was; "1931 Philco Cathedral Radio Cabinet Model 70." My greedy mind's
eye added a comma after radio. My Pholly became clear as soon as I picked up
the box from the front step and understood that a loose chassis or speaker was
not the worst possible outcome. The $20 shipping charge also changed from
mighty generous to just plain reasonable.

Ouch...

Well, I believe a cabinet alone is worth that much isn't it?
Now, let's find a complete chassis and speaker for the same.
