I hate to open my mouth if I'm blowing the secret, but wouldn't that set be older than 1949? I thought those type of mirror-lid sets were most often pre-war? By '49 I could by a direct-view Zenith with a bigger screen. I recently saw a photo of a pre-war Zenith, and ohhhh wouldn't I love to have that!

Check the Sams listing, it really is a 1949 model, have restored 3 Sparton mirror tops that also were 1949 models, they did not have channel 1 meaning post 1948.

Oh I believe you, and if you think I have a Sams listing for that set, you give me far more credit than I deserve! This was just a gut-reaction... I don't think I would have bought one of those in '49 however, seems about 10 years out-of-date.

There's one of those sets in an Antique store by my house that's been there for a while, I'd love to get it, but they want $425 for it.
At first I though it was a pre-war set, but they actually had it dated 1949, and I believed them... Maybe the price will go down, and I can pick it up, it would be easy to get home, since the store is less than two blocks from my house... |

If that were close to me I'd be all over it.
I wonder how he plan's to ship it for $115? |

Aren't you running out of room yet Marlin? I guess you could stack it on top of something with all of the vertical space you have.
