Here we have an antique PHILCO car radio model 817, from 1936 near as I can tell. It’s in good shape for the age, and the tuning knob does move the tuner dial nicely. I don’t have the ability to test it, but I do know that radios this old often need new capacitors. Aside from that though, it would not surprise me if it worked. Please provide a REAL address. I will NOT mark them as’gift’. I DO NOT under-declare item value on the invoice. I know how fragile cast iron is. I use newspaper for small items, and packing peanuts only for very light items. I use a variety of bubble wrap and peanut-packs for most mid-size items. Heavy items will be packaged using solid styrofoam block. It is very rare for the items I pack to be broken, as my feedback should attest. Especially on those large items. I can be flexible with scheduling – just ask!
