\"NYTimes-AntiqueRadios\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Many thanks to my buddy, David Goren<\/a>, who recently discovered that the New York Times Store<\/a> is now selling fully-restored antique radios<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Pricing is not for the faint of heart–at time of posting, prices ranged from $395 to $23,000 US. \u00a0Each radio is\u00a0beautifully presented, with a full description,\u00a0and carries a one year restoration warranty. For an additional $95, many models can be modified with an AUX in audio jack.<\/p>\n

While these radios are well outside my meager vintage radio budget, I must say that I’ve thoroughly enjoyed looking at the photos and reading the descriptions.<\/p>\n
