    Filthy, some cracks on the faceplate, missing tubes & shields, but otherwise complete and reasonably restorable. $35 at a local flea-market. My first venture 'out' of this nature since July of 2021 - it must have been waiting for me.

    Wow, quite the deal. You've heard the rumor that Fidel Castro used one that was dropped with the Bay of Pigs materiel?

    That's a good deal. I work twice per week at our local antique mall,
    but unfortunately, no one ever brings in good radios.

    Unfortunately, you are on the wrong side of Pennsylvania, but it's a
    very fun 40k sq ft antique mall to venture through (East Liverpool, OH).
