Hello,
Sorry for my delay in responding to your answer, I have been out of
town all week.
I must admit to being a bit disappointed in your answer, perhaps I
have been misled by the depth of answers and research I've seen given
for other questions in this price range. In fact, using basic Google
searches for "antique radios" (and Zenith, etc) I have already visited
most if not all of these pages. A few of the recommended links
weren't even accessible or working, and most of the others provided
little useful (and no specific) information with regard to pricing or
market availability. I'm curious about the level of research that
went into the answer, beyond a series of basic keyword searches.
Also, my comment/question about reproductions was apparently ignored
or forgotten.
Please put a little bit more research into this if you could
please...I would greatly appreciate a helpful answer in this
situation.
Thanks.

Hi,
Answers for many questions need to be honed by the researcher after
requests for more information or some specific line of information by
the questioner. It is very rare for an answer to be exactly 'fitting
the bill' on the first go! I have personally answered some questions
with many clarifications of my answer. In fact the term
'clarification' does not necessarily apply each and every time. Once
the general approach becomes clear and some information reaches the
questioner, a kind of conversation develops between the questioner and
the researcher which eventually culminates at a point where the answer
is satisfactory (for both!). I am glad you have come back to me with a
number of issues with the 'first' installment of my answer. This will
hone my approach and will help me give you a more complete answer. So,
please bear with me and let me see how best I can get to what will
help you in this issue.
<In fact, using basic Google searches for "antique radios" (and
Zenith, etc) I have already visited most if not all of these pages.>
I assumed you wanted a 'starting point' as you had mentioned in your
question and I believe my answer is a starting point.
<A few of the recommended links weren't even accessible or working and
most of the others provided little useful (and no specific)
information with regard to pricing or market availability.>
I personally checked the contents of each and every link before
copying them into my answer. So, today I re-checked all the links.
Yes, there is one link that does not function directly because of the
design of the site. For the valuation page in ANTIQUE RADIOS [
http://168.103.222.44 ] you have to hit the link at the bottom of the
page 'Value Guide' which will take you to the appropriate page. Sorry
for this one!
I believe that not many of these antiques may be available all the
time. You may have to scour some of these pages from time to time.
Also, I certainly believe you would not buy a radio without seeing it!
Hence, research for this kind of thing can only be indicative and not
definite.
<Also, my comment/question about reproductions was apparently ignored
or forgotten.>
I wanted to address the availability before I got to this.
