I guess the only source for new supplies of WW2 gear is from hoarder’s
garages. This acquisition was unusual enough for me to remark on it.
FWIW, the warehouses at Fair Radio are still chock full of parts, radios,
and parts of radios. See my photos from past visits at

Somehow Phil sells enough to pay the rent and short of a time machine I
guess Fair Radio is the only such outlet remaining on this side of the
Rockies. I dunno about the West.
Everyone who visits has a good time even if there aren’t any $29.95 BC-375
bargains.
