With the old radio the value is in the tubes, if they are still present and in working condition.

There is a very narrow group of collectors for them.

we have two drawers filled with new old stock (still in boxes), also have two LARGE tubes. Think 2 pound turnip shape and size.

again any help on value is greatly appreciated!!

To me, it looks more commercial use than Ham amateur equipment -

These folks might help Tube Collectors Association

It is going to take some research, but you may be surprised - commons, sell in lots - steampunk artists love these types. Check eBay, completed auctions , high to low.

Good Luck!
