I picked this up a few years ago for $5.00 It was working at the time.
It needs a little work.
But I thought I would share the picuture.

Boris and Natasha, Moose and Squirrel. Ahh, Cold War memories... "Better dead than red!" "Kill a commie for your mommy!"...

You'll need to replace all the wax paper capacitors. They don't age well, all become leaky today.

You can get everything you need over at justradios.com, the modern replacements look different but work well. These are among the easiest sets to fix up.
