Jimbama's house of antiques


At some point, I will get around to fully refurbishing all of this (only have fully done so with the Victrola in the back of the photo.)

2 newest additions- a Philco Cathedral from 1937, and a mid-50s RCA Victor short wave/AM radio. These were in an attic for a very, very long time, and I wasn't expecting much when I plugged them in. Sure enough the tubes in the Philco were glowing even if I couldn't tune anything in, and the RCA picked up AM stations and sounded lovely. 

Wonder if I'll be able to say the same for my iPod in 50 years...
