Hi everyone,
I went to look at a Pierce Airo radio chassis for sale yesterday - there was no model number on it but I thought maybe someone here might be more familiar with these. The chassis and faceplate are made of Formica, it has six battery terminals (C-, C+/A-, A+/B-, B+45, B+90, B+135).
It also has six tubes:
3 Cunningham CX-301-A
1 Cunningham DX-201-A
1 Cunningham 201-A
1 CeCo 201
The seller insists it was made in 1901 since he read an ad for a Pierce Airo radio in a 1901 Sears catalog. I told him this looked like a typical battery set from the 20's, but I think he's pretty convinced it's from 1901.
Any information on this would be helpful, including what a fair price would be.
Thanks,
Ryan
