Scott serial numbers

[Kent King]

As most of you know, I've been gathering and analyzing Scott serial numbers for over 20 years. I have a couple requests....first, if you haven't sent me your serial numbers, please do. Also...if any of you have a confirmed date for a set/serial number, please send me that. There is a warranty tag on ebay at the moment, these are great, since they have the date and serial number on them. A letter with a date is also good confirmation. I would greatly appreciate any info you fellows can provide. I'll post more about serial numbers here in the future.

Kent,

I have a Phantom that is serial number PP-170. I picked it up in Charlotte last month from a couple of guys from West Va. This is my first Scott. It is in an Acousticraft cabinet and has had the power transformer replaced sometime in its past.

Hello Kent,
Just aquired Scott AW23 in Olympia cabinet (pictures on board) and it has serial z-252
Thanks.

[Kent King]

Thanks Eric! That is a great find. I had Z-251 and Z-253....finding Z-252 makes 3 consecutive serial numbers, the only place where I have 3 in a row...

I have a Scott Allwave 12 DeLuxe w/AVC, I purchased used in Winnetka, Illinois in 1960. Its serial # is B190.

[Kent King]

Thanks....this was one we didn't have...fits the series as expected.

Good luck with your serial number project. I'm looking forward to any data you end up sharing.
I'd have been alarmed had you received my Scott's serial number since I've owned it for 50 years!

Hi Kent,
We have a 2nd Scott radio here at home, in an upstairs bedroom. (Out of sight, out of mind, especially my mind.) In any event, it is an SLR-12B and its serial # is 646. Thanks for your efforts.

[Kent King]

Thanks...I do not have many numbers for the military/WW-II sets...not enough to draw any conclusions. I'll add this to my list.

Hi Kent

I have two dates. My AW 12 Deluxe, serial number N 131, is dated May 20, 1933 and was owned by Louis M, Wilcox of Dayton,Ohio. The other date is from a Scott registration paper, with a date of Oct 18, 1936, stating that a Scott receiver with the serial number of T-639 belonged to a Walter C. Caldwell. I acquired a Scott 7 knob AW-23 tuner chassis, off of ebay last year, and you may or may not have this serial number recorded but it's Z-507. This is all that I can contribute at the moment.

Michael -

Thanks! I had all this info except for the date on the T prefix set. I really appreciate that, dates are a huge help with this.
