A must have for the radio collector
If you like the smaller stylish plastic antique radios, this book is a must have. I like how it showcases the common sets as well as the rarer ones. It shows how these are truly little pieces of art. It's a very enjoyable quality picture book to thumb through.Bestätigter Kauf: Ja
