Motorola Model AC41AL Plastic Radio (1950s)
Okay, so it's not the crown jewel of my collection.
If you want to know the truth, I bought this radio
for parts. It was sitting at the back of a Minnesota
junk shop, with a price tag of $3. I said to myself,
"Hey, if it has only one working tube that I can use
to fix another radio, I've earned back my $3 right
there."
That was before I bought around 1,000 used tubes
from an old guy's estate for $10. Now, I've got more
old tubes than I'll ever use, and this ugly duckling
is still hanging around looking forlorn. Guess there's no
choice left but to clean it up and pretend it's pretty.
Welcome to the flock, ducky!
