I was checking out the www.arcadecontrols forum today and came across this post by somone looking for a cabinet to house a MP3 jukebox.
Here is is message:-
Hey Everyone,
For the past few days I was thinking about building a Touchscreen Jukebox. I wanted to go more with an antique old style kind of look……of course except the LCD
I’m driving home yesterday and what do I see? EXACTLY what is was that I was looking for. RIGHT DOWN THE BLOCK FROM MY HOUSE WITH A SIGN ON IT THAT SAID FREE!!!!
As you can figure I loaded it in the truck and took off. When I got home it looks like it was a very old radio that had settings like Police, North America , South America……You have an idea how old it is now
The Possibilities
Ken Layton replied saying what the radio was.
Philco model 41-290 from the year 1941
A lot of work if he wants to restore it.
Take a look at the site and let me know what you think.
