O.K. I was at a radio auction today and ended up bidding on and winning what I thought was an early American Bosch console. I never looked at it before the bidding started but it looked really sharp and the condition was beautiful. Anyway I paid $65 for it. When I got it home I discovered it was actually a speaker/cabinet table. You can put any number of radios in it as long as it will fit. I removed the radio to find a pristine American Bosch model 38. It looks like it’s been inside this cabinet its whole life. The condition is amazing. The problem is I know nothing about it and found little or no help online. Any help out there? Good deal?

Good find, and it runs off the mains to boot.
