Hello all,
Last year my wife picked up a Philco radio from our neighbor during a community garage sale. We were told it did not work but she was interested in it from a purely decorative perspective.
This week we were looking at it and decided to identify exactly what model radio it was. However, the label with the model information is no longer attached to the radio. Here is what we know/are guessing at:
1. It looks to be either a model 38B or 60B.
2. Not sure how years are designated but I think it is a 1936 (introduced in 1935).
3. Serial number is: L10867
4. It has the larger escutcheon.
5. The dial scale is faded to the point where it looks blank; no print is visible.
6. It was in much better shape on the front face just a couple of months ago; we just moved and the movers did not take very good care of it when packing it up.
I have attached several photos below to help with the identification. Thank you for your help.
By the way, I plugged the radio in last night and it works perfectly. Great sound!
