Please call 415 453 9125 as we are clearing out a house and have much to give away at the end of the day on Sunday!

This includes beds, linens, outdoor furniture, television sets, stereo equipment, men's clothing and kitchen items.

We will NOT pay for hauling off - - take whatever you'd like.

But please don't call until Sunday until the sale is over at 1 p.m.

Thanks so much!

That Fada is about 30 miles from me. Where would a person ever find the knobs ? That might be a problem. Hard to tell what shape its in too. I may email her and take a look in person.

Later. Don

FADA Knobs

Don,

This set looks like it takes standard RCA knobs (like many of the FADA sets did).

You could buy a set of knobs online, or get a set from a 1940's RCA or RCA clone, that someone has kicking around for parts.

I'll see about finding a set . So was this set a copy of the RCA ? Just trying to get alittle history of the set. Also was wondering what size and number the picture tube is?

Thanks Harry,
Don

Don, that knob on ebay would work. Are you asking for a pic of my set?

eeeeewwwelll...

It is too old to have a tube--as in CRT--but the neon bulb connected to an extrernal receiver which most definitely did use tubes.
