I wondered how old it was, but hadn't been able to find anything about it. The powertone radios I have seen a lot of info on were much newer...1940s to 1960s. I knew it had to be a lot older than that, because of the speaker horn, but didn't know how old. -- Chris Crawford Fine Art Photography Fort Wayne, Indiana 260-437-8990 http://www.chriscrawfordphoto.com My portfolio http://www.facebook.com/pages/Christopher-Crawford/48229272798 Become a fan on Facebook On 10/25/13 8:33 PM, "lrzeitlin at aol.com" <lrzeitlin at aol.com> wrote: >Chris, >The Bruno Powertone radio was a real find.
