Great Grandmother's Philco
#9

Welcome to the phorum, Sparker. I agree with everyone else...get it operational and keep it! I'm working on a Model 20 that was my grandparents. It doesn't have the deluxe cabinet, but it is the radio that started the cathedral tabletop craze, and has family ties as well. My grandparents were anything but wealthy, and this radio came out just as the great depression hit the scene. This would have been a substantial purchase for them. When I'm finished with the restoration I plan to write a little documentation outlining it's ownership and restoration performed. That way maybe the great-great-great grandchildren will appreciate it. Just hope broadcast band is still around! Take care. Gary
