G'day guys, my name is Alan and I live in Melbourne. I'm not really a collector of vintage radios, but going through my garage the other day I came across an old radio that my grand mother gave me. I thought I'd sign up on here to see if someone could help me find out some more info about it, ie, when was manufactured etc. It's a Philips 100A, and from reading one of the tutorials about dating radios I guess it is from the 1950's, as it's fairly small, and made with a bakelite case. I'll take some photos of it, and see if anyone can help me out.
Cheers guys, Alan.

G'day Alan,

If you e-mail me the photos I can publish them here for you. Or if you have the photos on a website just e-mail me the links and I will add them to your post.

Glad you arrived at the forum finally. Smile


Brad.
