Very nice. I have never seen an RA-103 in blonde, assuming that's an original finish rather than a bad strip job. The cabinet looks identical to my RA-103 Meadowbrook, apart from the color. I believe the square dial (rather than round) makes it a RA-103D.

What it's worth depends partly on where you live. I have only found a couple of early DuMonts here in the Pacific NW.

I don't see how it could have been refinished, the front panel lettering all looks original and near perfect. It also has the light colored knobs that match the blond finish.

Ah, I didn't look at the close-up before. Yes, it looks original, and in gorgeous condition. What a beauty.
