I have always wanted one of these BC receivers because the on I used was given to me by my father.
And that was the first Stewart Warner radio I had ever had. I'd have to repaint it. The varsity series was for college students. They were painted in the university colors. I'd settle for a non working one in sad shape.

Gee!! I might fudge a little on the broadcast receiver at that price. I
remember the Conalrad requirement, but not sure what I used to fulfill it. I
think I had an old 5-tube table model Crosley sitting nearby. I guess
there's lots of them still around in people's attics.
