No, I did my own BA Radio decorating. Kinda slowed down in buying BA's the 
last few years as they take up lots of space. I have more than just 
Hallicrafters though. National & Hammarlund radio's are in the house too.

Found an S-41W 5 years ago that I thought someone painted until I did some 
research (I already had the S-41G) and found there was a white model & that 
it was more rare than the grey one. Have more Halli's than other 
manufactures but not as many as a guy in QST (with his photo) has. I think 
whoever that is lives in Austin TX but I don't remember.. Pictures show 
several shelves of Hallicrafter radio's Many more than I'd want to own...
