So, it's liked by one of us at least. LOL! Don't get me wrong. I didn't expect everyone to think it was a stellar find. I just wanted some opinions or facts as oddly enough out of all the radios that I do have; I don't have any RCA Victor or Radiola as standards of performance. Also, for some reason I thought that Radiola was some independent company and not an RCA. I'm still not sure, but I don't think all RCAs were Radiolas.

The name was a selling point though along with supposedly a slick white original paint job, super clean and restored (recapped) six tube chassis, and although on the plain looking side there still is some Art Deco flair about it. As far as packing goes the guy said he packs in that expandable foam, so it should be able to take a beating from the best of our cautious and careful postal employees. I shall soon see what kind of performance comes from RCA during that time period. My experience tells me that Philco is the stuff that just plays forever with little to no work involved and certain Zenith sets. So I needed an RCA for the dust collection. Thanks everyone!
