Storage Wars Philco tonight
#1

Hi,
OK , I admit I am a Storage Wars addict.

In any case, tonight's new season opener, Jarod and Brandi found a Philco, I believe a 41-295 in a locker. Missing dial glass, usual rotted buttons, but everything else appeared to be intact and the cabinet looked pretty good.

They took it to "a guy that restored old radios". Not sure who it was, but in the So Cal area. He had shelves of old sets in his garage. The values on the show are usually too high, he said in as found condition the set was about $250. Restored, over $1000. Icon_rolleyes Ok, whatever.
He also claimed it was the "top of the line set" for 1941.

I wonder who the fellow was they took it to, no name was given.
You can probably catch the show in a rerun this weekend no doubt.
Hopefully, it will be sold to someone that will restore it.
Take care,
