Inside was the phono, in perfect shape. I immediately sent him the $50 plus shipping.

Hey Jeff,

That's right, I almost forgot about that and that was about 15(?) or more years ago. He also wanted $500 for the Predicta barber pole with the box but I didn't buy that one either and it worked good too. He had NOS antennas for the Predictas and some other misc stuff too. One of the Miss Americas was slightly water damaged as the roof on the storage area had partially collapsed but all was hidden all those years behind some junk and old TV's. He had forgotten about them and they just stayed there until Dave had cleaned them out. I wonder what a G4242 Predicta new in the box is worth?!!
