They were not the biggest brand, but there were MANY contemporary outfits that were much smaller that are still reasonably easy to find examples of. Of course within a brand some models will be more common due to higher original sales/production.
interesting, I wonder why I've never seen any original Crosleys before until this one, if they're as common as you say they are? The only Crosleys I've ever seen were the reproduction ones before but never original ones up until I found this one at the antique mall recently. And why would it be that most of the radio collector sites I saw that had Crosleys and in particular this model listed said that this particular Crosley that I have was a pretty rare model then?
