Two Philcos
#1

Greetings from a new member.
I was looking at these 2 sets today.
A Philco 20 and a Philco 620.
Prices seemed reasonable, but I was wondering if these are good sets to have and repair. The cabinets seem to be good and the insides look complete and good. I doubt if they are playable as is, but there doesn't look like there's anything too scary about them. Assuming the prices are fair would you recommend buying these?
thank you
Jim
I tried posting pictures, but I must be doing something wrong since I cannot get them to show when I previewed my post.
