Questions about a 1937 Philco 610
#5

Haha yeah Mike was the most popular name for a boy for how many years running?

I appreciate your input. If this was a table top model I might hang onto it, but this thing is just too big. Now don't get me wrong I think the thing is really cool and I'd love to play with it, but also I know that I'd use it for like two days and then the same thing would happen, it would be relegated to an unused corner of a bedroom. My whole life I've been something of a collector, and frankly I am ready to try something new... I don't want to be surrounded by so much stuff, weighing me down, anymore. I'll be keeping enough family portraits and knick knacks to remember her by... this thing just sat unused in one dusty bedroom for as long as I can remember, so I don't really have any memories attached to it.

I will say I am amazed that the tag has survived, that to me shows it was a dear possession at one point.
