I'm a HRSA member and have posted a request on a mailing list frequented by folks who restore old radios. If anything comes of it I'll let you know.
I imagine the historical significance would be high for only a very small number of people. The front panel color is not unusual and a company called Weston also used it for a similar style of radio. It reminds me of old weatherboards and must have been a bargain price back in the day. :-) Looks like that panel would need a lot of prep to make the new paint stick.
Thank you, much appreciated...
as suggested earlier by VK5TM..... I looked at the site http://www.radschool.org.au/magazines/Vol57/Page15.htm
I left a message with them about the radio but as yet have not heard from them...
I still may take out the drawers and give it all a gentle blow out with the compressor and possibly restore the face and box....
I will see how it goes...
Bob
