Yep definitely a beautiful radio. I purchased this exact model in a little antique store today for a bargain $55! Looks in great shape, is my first old radio and very happy with it. I think it is from 1941? What would you recommend a newbie like me use to clean up the cabinet and get that nice finish you got? I of course don't want to damage the wood. Now just gotta get my friend to get me an antenna for it Icon_smile
