I think that in small bakelite radios the value is more in the styling, than actual quality or rarity of the radio. The "Hollywood Bowl" styling of this radio is likely considered attractive to a number of bidders, driving the price up. A less common set may be considered to be more rare, but if it is ugly, selling price is likely to be lower. Philco made a number of stylish and cute radios that IMHO, are quite desirable.
What is the shortwave frequency range in mhz?
