It's a late version 37-60B -

- although it oddly uses the larger escutcheon of the 1938 version (38-60B). The reason could be that this is a transition model, one of the last 1937 models to come off the assembly line, or else Philco switched to the larger escutcheon during production of the second version 37-60B (more likely).
Philco did not always document changes, which causes head scratching, arguments, etc. among collectors these days.
