Dream from last week: I'm in some sort of warehouse, I think it was part of a museum, and my father & my wife are there, among others. There are all these old console radios & tvs. I keep finding one after another, but they have all been gutted. Finally I find one in a pile of stuff, its an upright radio-style console, sort of a combination of some prewar RCA's and of a Stromberg Carlson radio I have. Like the S-C it has a pair of doors at the top. In the dream it was a Philco and it was prewar. There was a 3" screen above the doors at the top, and when you opened the doors there was a 10" screen behind them. There was a note on the set saying it worked, and I may have even had it working. I was scared of it because I had heard that the hv systems on prewar sets were particularly dangerous and I could tell by looking at the chassis that it was a different animal. Someone in charge told me it was for sale for, I think, $15, and I was very, very concerned about making this purchase and getting that set home before a)they scrapped it or b)they decided not to sell it.
