Hey, I resemble that remark, Icon_lol

 In my defense, I am collecting 1930-1940 Philco items and radios for my display and stocking up on winter projects..
Do I need 2 of everything.. No but they KEEP coming up cheap locally, Icon_lol

As for the radio, I dont like that model so I give a thumbs down if it was local... If you like it and it is affordable then go for it!
I got rid of mine last year or you could have it.

What are you looking for? I have a bunch that are too new for my display or not Philco I could send you for cost and shipping...
I have ( off the top of my head)
A 50-925 $16.00
A Garod 5A2 with crack in case $5.00
A Emerson 425 no knobs and stripped already $8.00
A Plastic GE clock radio $6.00
A Plastic Zenith clock radio $8.00
I have others if you tell me what you like...
