I just have time to give the author title:

David Johnson, Antique Radio Restoration Guide, 2nd Edition.

It's just something I picked up off the shelf, seems to have usefull
information. I'm not testifying to its usefullness, as I haven't put
any of it into pracitce (as I mentioned).

But looks like it's only $12 or so from amazon...
