Philco Clock Radio

I picked up this little clock radio by Philco a few weeks ago. From 1950 or 51, and the clock works perfectly on it, time is spot on. The radio has something blown in it, probably a capacitor. I don't know jack about radios, but I'm going to try and fix it soon. Probably next quarter when I get back from Spring Break. I'll have pictures up of that when the time comes.



I love the face on this clock. Reminds me of the font from Bioshock.



Claire bought this little cabinet/armoire last weekend and I bought the lamp. I think the radio looks great on it as far as the colors and everything. Great looking cabinet.

Westinghouse Fan

I had seen this fan a long long long time ago on http://www.poetichome.com/ and absolutely loved it. I had to have one, so I got one! I bought it about a year ago so I'm not quite sure why I didn't put it up on this blog before. But, here she is.



I love the machined vents in the housing. The shapes of the 50's are just awesome.
