Hey. Like I said in my other thread(if you havent seen it, please view), I think these may be worth alot. My mom saw in a magazine they range from $500-$5000 a piece. Well, Please tell me how much their worth. Thanks.

The two radios pictured are bakelite, circa 1940. In working condition should retail for $30-$60................

New Guy Here.... Kinda flying blind. ???

I am an antique radio collector for the past 20plus years and my be able to help some in ID of radios and maybe values.

Right now I am looking for information on the Pooley Furniture Company of Phila., PA.  They made cabinets for some of the major radio companies in the 1920's and 1930's. I need the company history. Anyone have that?
Thanks

Radio cabinets are neat in the fact that most people dont even know what they are. I have not heard of Pooley funiture.. Ill look around.
