Love-or-hate it 1938 GE GD-60

[decojoe67]

I saw this set at a local antiques show when I was about 13. Although in excellent condition, at $30 I couldn't justify buying it. I wanted a set with a big lit airplane dial and this one seemed pretty homely. 40 years later I acquired one for only $10 more! This as-found set was pretty dirty and worn, but it cleaned up very nicely. It also appears to have had a basic recap many years ago and work well. An added bonus. It's a 6-tube set with a glass ballast tube (in the metal cover) and a non-lit dial. By the old station tags it appears to be from the Chicago area.
