I just acquired a 40-150 radio that had some restoration performed by a previous owner. The power cord appears to be new, not original. It is a fabric covered cord.
I have some '41 and '46 Philcos that came to me with worn cords that might be original, and those are all plain brown zip cord.
Were the original power cords in 1940 fabric covered? If so, what color(s)? If Philco used fabric power cords, when were they discontinued?
