Nice set. I've yet to find an Admiral with the built-in radio.

I recently finished this 19A12 tabletop, my first Admiral set.



It was an easy restoration and this 7-inch TV performs very well given its simple design. This may inspire me to dig out the 24C15 console that's waiting for restoration in the back of my shop.
