UK prewar TV sells for over $15000

[ppppenguin]

Apart from a "one off" exotic in the Bennett-Levy sale that went for over $25000 I think this is a new record price for a pre-war TV. It's a Marconiphone 702, a relatively common set, if any pre-war TV can be called common. I know the vendor and he is an excellent craftsman. The set's restoration has been meticulously documented http://www.radiocraft.co.uk/702.htm
