Thanks Phil (and everyone), but I'm certain she has NO intention of restoring it. It worked when it was put down there twenty years ago, she simply likes
that it's there, period. After meeting a host of pat rack types over the years I quickly sized this one up as a hard case. She has no issues with over ten grand each year in lost rent on a large apartment one bedroom of which houses her magazine collection. I will follow up though for awhile.
Since these roundies are beautiful on the INSIDE and I don't think I'll ever have more than two or so I'm not in
too much of a hurry. Almost no one knows these matter yet, whereas everyone's known about radio collectibles for a long time. So even though they are rare I figure I can find one or two that are easier to catch
