RN Museum selling exhibits
Hi,
Look at http://www.rnmuseumradarandcommunications2006.org.uk/ and there are some pdf files of items the museum is selling. It all seems to be domestic radios and similar, mostly 50s? Might be of interest. Bob |

Re: RN Museum selling exhibits
And all horrendously overpriced sadly.
It is a shame, because they will end up as skip fodder.

I hope they drop the prices as things fail to sell. Some of the descriptions are a bit ropey, e.g. a Pye Black Box described merely as a "hifi gram" and a set allegedly made by Money Hicks. N. |

Re: RN Museum selling exhibits
Half way down page 4 there is V4A by Radio Instruments. I've got its smaller brother the V2A. It would be nice to have the pair but not at those prices.

Re: RN Museum selling exhibits
Pye model Q seems fair at £50 (page 23)

Re: RN Museum selling exhibits
I emailed Mr Legg at the museum and enquired about the prices. His reply is below:
Apologies for the delay, I have been in the midlands for 10 days. Reference the cost of the radio's, why not pay us a visit, or make us some offers, we are always ready to do a deal rather than the skip. Bill Legg Museum Curator So as he says why not talk to him and maybe come to an agreement Malcolm |
