The Fine Things are Always Hand Made

A NEW ACQUISITION.
For your viewling pleasure, here is my all original GE (F-70) 1937 nicely Deco large table radio. I believe it's a seven (7) tube model. Even thought we all love E.H. Scott radios, I believe members also enjoy seeing other makers as well and what they were building in the "Golden Age of Radio."

I have had a G-53 and several F-63s (love that deco cabinet). They perform quite well given their limitations.
