With how nice it is I wonder if it was kept in the house....Most barn sets out here are VERY shabby.

This is one of those barn sales that take place every weekend. It's down the road from me, but it's usually full of flea market/low-end items. It actually had service possibly in the '50's-'60's with several replaced tubes. It was an easy fix and plays as a AA5 should. Amazing that it has no heat burns. It looks like an estate sale find and, no doubt, stored indoors. It had a very dull darkened finish, but Novus made it shine.
Kevin - excuse the photo. Without the flash and it came out pretty dark. The flash on my old camera is sometimes a bit too much. Yeah, we actually get a lot of sunny days here actually on the Island, but a fair share of gloomy days and blustery winds too. Not near as bad here as new England.
