[Hallicrafters] SX-62 dial window (fwd)

[john]

Seems to me I've heard of a fixative that is used by people who
collect pinball machines (the back glass sometimes similarly peels
due to age and the heat from the lights). A search through the web
at sites that are involved in Pinball machine collecting might be worthwhile.

(there's one thing that takes  up more room than BA's ... Pinballs!)
