Well, I wasn't expecting to be 300 dollars lighter this weekend. Was only planning to spend 80 on the Silvertone 7071 up in Natick, Mass, But the guy had to tell me about a guy he knew the next town over with a few consoles for sale. So after a phone call I was headed to Needham ( after a visit to an ATM) and scored the Zenith 9-S-56 and Crosley 03CP. Got them both for 220 dollars. He had a bunch of Philcos left but I got the pick of the litter. Plus I couldn't fit any more in my van. I've always wanted one of these Crosleys. Just an awesome look. Love the huge dial.

A full set of manuals came with the set, Larry...but thanks just the same.

Just a couple things from the local Flea.
This big RCA AM/FM which works great but needs 2 knobs, $1
And this GE 8-track which also works great and big box-o-tapes $5
I was pretty happy,

125 78's for $20. Old country to 50's pop. 95% post war. No classical and only a few Swing and Sway w/ Sammy Kaye.

...that C-D cap bridge brings back a few memories (we had one in our shop; I remember using it a few times)...and so does that Sony radio...it's a TFM-110 or something like that...IIRC it's intended to be water-resistant and if you ever need to do any work on it, it's going to be a bear to get into...

This WILL look fantastic when done .... the veneers on some of theses are breath taking

I made out like a bandit today in the lighting department.

A pair of c. 1905 pin-up brackets with mica sockets and a nice 30's floor lamp - I already had the shade in waiting so it was nice.

I broke two twenties on them, but got 12 back.

BTW... the shade is actually ornate, but it got obliterated in the exposure.

Nice finds Nick, I really like that lamp.

Found this yesterday

Looks old, early 1900? how do you wind it?

It's a Philco 51 mantle clock radio.... but I'm guessin' you knew that already hoffies..... Great snag JB!!!

Its an electric clock. 1932 Philco Model 551 clock radio with a 5 tube chassis in it. Only thing missing is the glass on the face of the clock. They are pretty desirable, got mine for a super price.

Naaa, took a quick look, didn't see the knobs, clocks ketch my eye, took it for granted.

A long day of flea marketing yesterday and all I got was 9 NOS Hytron VT-67 (HY-24) tubes.

I do stop once inawhile at the fleas but 99% of the time the same dumpster trash. Tag sales are much better for finds. JMO.

I got this one about 2 weeks ago,up and running now;

A nice Westinghouse H-161 AM&FM radio. It should be a fun restoration.
