I recovered this old radio from my late uncles house , would this be of any interest to its a Marconi 42AC, it’s missing its back cover

That's quite an early set (1931) and well worth restoring. A bit of info here https://www.radiomuseum.org/r/marcon...2_ac_42ac.html Cheers, Jerry

Thank you, I would definitely be interested in restoring it , if there is somewhere that would do it, but I bet it would cost a fortune to do, thank you for the link very interesting, I never imagine it was as old as that, almost an Antique
