Super nice! How long have you been collecting?

Thank you Steeltoad63
Nice collection, they look in remarkable condition, so you seem to want the best the first time round. The design is so futuristic, where the future was envisioned so wonderfully, but somewhere in the future, designs like this stopped.
Yes, this collection of Emerson Radio Model 744B took my about 8 years to collect, I only bought the best, with no damage and all original.........check out the coral Pink / Black beauty for sale now on http://www.catalinradio.com
