It looks to me like the "I" in "PHILCO" is almost right on the centerline.
Nevertheless...
Kirk, leave it alone. It's good enough. It will look like a Philco employee didn't get the original decal 100% centered. Like I said, there are some, perhaps several, Philco radios with off-center original decals.
I would leave it be too! Good 'nuff.
As for the center, the "I" is a bit left off the center, but a bit closer to it then "L".
However if you look at the letters, "LCO" Is quite a bit wider than "PHI" and so to keep it symmetrical "L" should be with its pole on or even a bit left off the center.
I guess it can get complicated.
Again, Kirk, it is good. Leave it where it is.
sorry but on my big screen tv its way off to the right not being an a** but looks ok though
I dont want to get bashed again if it is incorrect
When I put the cabinet and chassis back together I will post photos.

Obsessive-compulsive is an enemy of good enough.
Ok I have finished the cabinet except for waxing.
I found the Radiodaze decal thickness to be much more than the last batch of decals I had. I had to add 6 coats of lacquer and it was still very much outlined. I had to sand and sand and sand to get it to blend.
Wonder if they printed it on a wrong paper?
Anyway I got the cabinet ready for curing. there is a peek at Mikes cabinet too!
Is the decal OK now? Ok I just looked and the pic is too far away. UGH!
I moved it to the center of the line and measured the sides of the cabinet.
The decal may not be perfectly centered since I had issues applying it.
Chassis is ready for re-insertion
This is what I woke up to this morning to work at the butt crack of dawn.
