View Full Version : Nice early 30s radio at Chicago estate. zenithfan1 05-15-2009, 02:41 PM In the eighth row of pictures there is a very nice looking radio, I don't recognize the brand. http://www.EstateSales.NET/estate-sales/63141.aspx 2DualsNotEnough 05-15-2009, 02:50 PM Those speakers in the fifth row look pretty interesting,too. Jimmy ekmanning5 05-15-2009, 03:26 PM I was #8 in line. They are Herald ? speakers. I thought perhaps they were Klipsch. That's why I was there an hour early. Don't know anything about Herald. Anyway, I missed some great LPs at another sale by going here first. Please don't tell me I screwed up by not getting these. :no: Oh well. similost 05-15-2009, 03:29 PM Looks like maybe a Philco radio? The speakers look like Klipsch clones, or home made jobbies.. Guess no one caught the Marantz sitting on top of the speakers? similost 05-15-2009, 03:30 PM OH.. or the real jewel.. looks like a single strange Thruster sitting next to the small TVs ekmanning5 05-15-2009, 03:37 PM Looks like maybe a Philco radio?

EJM3 05-18-2009, 01:34 PM Just imagine sitting their listening to the radio ads and serials as well as the news. A lot of history in that thing. zenithfan1 05-18-2009, 02:45 PM Yes, someone did. SR-5100. Grabbed it just in case. :yes: Good save, I saw it too but no time to get it or the radio. Anyone grab the radio?? BostonDave 05-18-2009, 08:52 PM The old upright radio is indeed a Philco 90 Lowboy - 1931 w/9 tubes. Someone locally sold one of those about month ago here which was in very nice cosmetic condition. Asking price was $100.00 when the ad disappeared. |
