Good luck with the restoration. I have a mint condition Westinghouse
Columaire Jr. from 1923 in my guest bedroom. In 1923 the radios did not
have SW. I also have an early 1920's Majestic console in my dining room
and a 1983 Philco console in my living room along with a 1923 Victrola
side console all in working order. I am sure that when you finish the
restoration you will want a few more too.
