Chris,
The Bruno Powertone radio was a real find. It was made by the Bruno 
Radio Corp. in New York, probably about 1925 and had all of three 
tubes. It is a nice item for old radio collectors. Believe it or not 
there are almost as many of those as Leica collectors. If in workable 
condition it would sell for about $1000. A nearby neighbor is an 
antique radio collector and has a large roomful of the relics. He says 
the main problem is finding replacement tubes.
