The Collins 4A (below) was introduced in October of 1933, one month after the company was incorporated.
This one was part of the original Pavek Collection. Unfortunately, it had been badly modified and was unfit for display.
In 1966, Joe wrote to the Collins Company asking for help. He received a personal response, from Art Collins himself, apologizing for not having the necessary parts to restore it.

John Bravis WØEKS and Jon Lieberg KØFQA worked on the 4A for several months to get it back to original condition. We can't wait to see what their next project will be!

Special thanks to Rod Blocksome KØDAS from Collins Radio in Cedar Rapids, Iowa for providing photos and documentation on their 4A.
