 I just received the radio this morning and I'm in love! It's more incredible than I imagined! 

I thought you might like to see it in place, with its pointer attached, so I will attach some pictures.
Thank you so much, I've really enjoyed working with you on this project for the past couple of months and will certainly contact you for any future radios I invest in!

Pleased with purchase, and it’s certainly hard to come by unlike all the Motorolas!

PINK CHRYSANTHEMUM Mid Century Retro Vintage 1955 Sylvania R598-10895 Tube AM Clock Alarm Radio Upscale and Almost Mint!

 

Received and pleased – it’s doubtful you’ll find another – it must have been resplendent in the 1950s with the adjustable blue lighting

(switch in back).  Nonetheless the cabinet is in time warp condition and can pass as new.

Very pleased with this purchase. We needed an audio source to fit in with a vintage setting and this great little radio allows us to stream Bluetooth while looking great! Vender was very responsive and helpful before and after purchase.

I love this radio because my paternal grandmother had this exact model mounted on brackets underneath her kitchen cabinets. She had the idea for the "Spacemaker" radio way before GE started marketing them!

Received order #1199 today safe and sound! Radios sound and look great! 
I look forward to doing business with you in the future.

 Hi Allen, I got the beautiful radio today. It was packed so well ! It really is gorgeous and in excellent condition. Thank you so much. Katia

Received the orders and am satisfied.

 

I believe the Philcos were less expensive than the others such as Arvins in their day.  They lack the extra embellishments and

also the plastic is thinner (you probably observe this when packing, since they’re lighter.)     In fact, beginning in 1960, Philco,

abandoned consumer products (as Raytheon did) and produced missiles.  A military contract avoids consumer competition. 

During the Vietnam War, Lyndon Johnson as asked why he was prolonging it, and he replied, “ Too many of my friends are making money

on it.”

 

Since you have an affinity for automobiles, I would like to offer analogy:   If you walked into a Ford show room in 1961, the Ford Falcon would be

the radio equivalent of a Philco; the Thunderbird would be the equivalent of an Arvin radio .

 

I have been purchasing them as gifts for my Dad, and I hope he’s well for Father’s Day. The old technology provides great memories for people

partial to that time period.

 

It ‘s been a pleasure working with both you and Kea, and your service is as fine as your products.  I hope you both enjoy the upcoming Memorial Day Holiday.

Hi Allen
Just received the radio it looks and it works great and I thank you for that.

Anyway I am happy for my purchase.

My wife is delighted with the 1959 Motorola radio with Bluetooth. She brags about it to her friends. If you are into vintage electronics and radios - these restored/upgraded items are something to check out. You won't find gifts like this just anywhere.

TORCH Red Mid Century Retro Antique Vintage 1959 Crosley Ranchero T-60 RD AM Tube Radio Near Mint Quality Construction Sounds Great!

*************************************************************************************************

Most important, I was very satisfied with the last order; despite ad, the clock is silent and

the blemishes were not as bad as indicated. Oftenstimes  rubbing alcohol or car polish can

delete them without altering the factory finish.  It’s redundant in this case since

they’re not very prevelant:

I've added the Bluetooth to several radios I've purchased from Allen. All have worked well.
