Does it sound like a good deal at about $130 per radio? The auction was
supposed to close December 1 and then be broken up if it didn't sell--or
maybe not; the website has conflicting views. There is a $6,000 discount
if you pick up!
This is Frank Moore's collection, originally out of Billings, Montana,
where in 1985 he had acquired only 150. At that time it included a blue
Sparton mirror-face radio and a Scott chrome 15-tuber, which don't appear
to be in this collection, as well as some NIB blue Arcturus tubes (

sheet music song that Jerry and Marsha might like (here on Flickr:
