Hey Bob, I love that Emerson, those bakelite sets look great all polished up. I'm glad it was only the ion trap causing the brightness issue.

Thanks. That set really fell into my lap. I was walking by a new & used stereo shop a few blocks from my place one night and spied it in the window. They were using it for a sales prop.



I went back the next day and asked the owner if it was for sale. He seemed really surprised someone was interested in it. We haggled for a while and I went home with it

Too bad someone used the vent hole for an ashtray


There's a lot of really silly stuff it that place. Modern amps with little windows so you can see the 12AX7s glowing inside

We stopped in a little antique store today and they had a little bakelite (?) bank that looked just like that Emerson, given away by the company as a sales gimmick I guess. He wanted $18 for it which I guess isn't too bad, but more than I wanted to spend. I was thinking I should mention it here, in case somebody wants me to pick it up.

Those show up on eBay now and then and they usually sell for about that amount. I'd like to have one, but can't justify spending quite that much
