Today I found a model #296 Concert Grand radio and phonograph. This fits into a corner and has a record player with side record storage. I was told that about only 300 were made and cost $350.00 back in 1930. This is in excellent condition cabinet wise. I was unable to get a good look at the chassis. The asking price is $1995.00.The turntable is in perfect condition. Suppose to all work,"a certain guy is the only one allowed to demonstrate it". I found it during my lunch hour, at an antique store. It is beautiful. Icon_clap Ron... in your book 1928-1942 it only shows a drawing. I frequent this store and I'm sure they will let me take some photos. Let me know if you want me to try.
