Can I actually shoot for the second prize? After all, the first prize is probably no longer standing, where ever it may be. The second prize is probably worth a fortune if it's still in the box.
Since no one else could use it, I'll happily take the $30K off your hands. I assume that's adjusted for inflation since 1957 when this contest was originally run, correct? So now that would be about $1 million? Or was it invested in AIG, Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers, Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac, so now it's worthless?
Third prize is you're fired.

Whaddo I gotta do to get in on this baby?
On a variation of Snad's comment (dang her fast commenting skills!!)...
The house looks cool and all, but I have wanted a transistor radio since I was seven and I am almost 51. It is overdue!
Oh wait, isn't that the reason John McFrackingAncient wants to be president? Entitlement based on time spent.
Nevermind.
Snad is so right about the original packaging version of the radio. A safer investment than any that Wall St. could offer.
I'm really curious, what year is that contest from...I'm guessing the late 50s.

PoP-That contest was from a Good Housekeeping magazine dated 1962.
You just cost me $6,000 and one Cadillac!
Isn't that the Brady Bunch house?
I bet that house has a swank wet bar in the rumpus room.
My answer is: Pan troglodytes – Am I right? Do I win?
What exactly is a rumpus room?
