$124.50

A Radiola 82, circa 1930, that belonged to my grandparents. Perfect for restoration project.The cabinet is in pretty good shape, though when I had it out to take photos of it
last year, I neglected to take a photo of the top. Right now, it is safely buried
in the middle of our garage.I have never applied power, so I don\'t know if it works. From an OCR of the November 13, 1930 The Lincoln Star from Lincoln, Nebraska, Page 5
