Erres KY 587


I got this Erres KY 587 radio for free when I picked up some other stuff.It had spent the last years of it's life stuck in a shed being a home for many spiders.Not surprisingly then that the condition isn't that great:the keys are dirty and some of them have hairline cracks,the wooden housing is faded and marked with waterstains.It is als partially taken a part but all the pieces were there.Nevertheless some good points are:the housing is not damaged,the glass in the front (with the conductor)is in very good shape and there are no tears in the fabric.
I won't restore it to it's former glory(make it play again),but turn it into a decorative piece with a light inside.
