Those Crosleys with the little Bakelite dials and brass bezels remind me of 1930s radios -- old-fashioned looking (not a bad thing).

Bout time you started hangin with us :yes: :D

Kamakiri,

Beautiful Crosley Console. Thanks for sharing it. I like seeing less common makes of early TV sets.

Having the space for these consoles, besides their heaviness, will always hurt their desirability, but I am seeing much more interest in them now than ever before. Years ago collectors would totally avoid them. They are often high-quality beautiful sets, like this Crosley, that should be saved.
I agree that this one is exceptional in that it has a great early look to it. You don't see them very often.

It's the very first TV I have ever brought home that my wife AND my kids both think is VERY cool.

I was wondering if I really wanted to keep it. I guess I am :yes:

You "GUESS" ?!? Mein Gott, the kids AND the War Dept BOTH like it, & you're wavering ?!? Aye, Caramba....(grin)

I got lotsa sets. If someone waved $200 in front of my face, they'd still own it ;)

I like your basement.... Can I come visit?:D:D...That Crosley is awesome looking too, hope you can get it going.:thmbsp: Cheers Glen.

Here's a variation on this set that's been on the Minneapolis CL. Interesting how these things surface in multiples.
