I think Arran has a point.
I didn't mention "De Luxe" for the sake of brevity. I have seen some Philco paper that called the 690 the "37-690X De Luxe" early in the 1937 season; later on, they dropped the "De Luxe" probably for the reasons Arran mentioned above.
(I have the introductory 1937 model year brochure as well, produced in the summer of 1936.)
