Hi collectors,
Want to share my latest two radios I have recently found.
Both looked like they were hiding away in a shed for many years due to the original condition and the layer of thick dust both inside and out.
I love finding them in this condition and seeing the transformation as you clean away.

Kriesler 11-29 in white / cream case with a red dial and original knobs. Case is damage free and has come up very well after two hours of cleaning. It also has original speaker cloth.

Monarch BKL in a mottled walnut case with an amazing yellow detailed dial. It also has original knobs.
Case is damage free and after a few hours of cleaning came up very well.
