Crosley 9-425 and Stromberg-Carlson porthole in DC area
http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/m...401470211.html
http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/m...401464057.html Bit too far to drive for me. That Stromberg looks pretty sweet though.

That Stromberg TC-10 does looks to be in pretty good shape - better than mine. I hope he has the back.

I picked up the Stromberg this evening. It included the back.
 I also bought a 1920(s) radio transmitter in a wooden box from him. I already have the Crosley set in my collection. His Crosley tv is missing the lid. He also had some early 1950 RCA B/W consoles which I don't have room for. He said he is looking for a postwar mirror-in-lid like the 1949 Spartan but I told him mine is not for sale.

Not TV related but part of the pickup story. It turns out the 1920(s) radio transmitter is a medical (quake?) shortwave device to lessen pain in the human body. The patents listed on the device (1915-1920) are for Deforest and Western Electric for Shortwave transmisson using a single tube. The wavelength is 23.3 meters reserved for medical and experimentation according to google.
