There hasn't been much interest in them from the vintage radio community up till now, but I get the impression that interest is now increasing and they are becoming collectable.
True, occasionally you find may one in pristine condition, I would expect these are the ones to pay a little extra for. If the stitching, or the chrome effect finished plastic are showing signs of wear any attempt to repair will always be noticeable.
