amazing how these 1950's things still work. i have a massager, the kind you put on your hand, and the thing still works perfectly. its from 1952. Nothing today is built like that stuff in the 50's. i could beat someone to death with that massager.

@bmesiasbmesias yeah, i just jave to get off my ass and find a stem and cut a base for it, add a resistor and it'll be good to go... but i am positive it will have a lower level "old timey" crystal mic sound to it.

Wow last time I seen one of these was in 1969 on a sound stage, it looks to be in real nice shape.

@GrayRealities :) yeah, it's not mint but it's real good.. i think someone left the case open on a shelf for display, and smoked around it, because one side is yellowed a tiny bit.
