Forgive my ignorance, but what is so special about this radio that

Zenith only made 350 of those radios, and only about 40 are known to
still exist.

The odd thing is the cabinet on this one has quite a few missing bits of
veneer, and scratches, a knob is missing and the other knobs aren't in
great shape. The seller doesn't indicate if it works.

He may regret it after seeing the radio in person, but the high bidder
bid at least $21k more than the next highest bidder to meet the reserve.

But this is somewhat of a "holy grail" radio - he might never see
another one for sale.

And it wasn't sold by Radio-Mart!
