Description

"Did you see me on the radio?" -Tony Dobbin

Cynlee mentioned that she liked this photo when I posted a version of it in the Forum months ago. So cyn, this one's for you! I can't find any info on it at present. I'll update this page if I do. I am guessing it is a 50s era plastic or bakelite Westinghouse tube ratio with lit lucite dial. ----- Thanks for your papery comments on my last upload, Minsk Mail.
