The OVRC is launching a large on-line auction that may be interesting to members. There are about 235 lots, mostly of radios (tube in wood and plastic, mostly 1935-1960), transistor radios, communications receivers (Hallicrafters, and some modern Grundig, Sony, Panasonic) literature, test equipment, lab standards, and some parts. The radios are mostly in good to excellent condition, some look absolutely perfect.
The crown jewel is a perfect Addison "Courthouse". The collector had an eye for unique design and colour and his collection includes some nice "art moderne" pieces. Lots of Northern, Marconi, RCA, Philco, Rogers, GE, Zenith. Some Crosley, Philips, Emerson, Sparton. Something for every collector.
