Trying to learn more about my philco radio - Project240 - 01-28-2018
Hey Guys,
New member here. We have an philco radio that we are trying to find out some more info about. I have tried to Google and figure out model, etc, but I'm really not sure. Any help or info is greatly appreciated.

Hmmm - I didn't find it in the gallery. It looks like a late 1940s model to me.
Very possibly a Canadian model (many were not the exact same style as U.S. models). Hopefully someone else will know.
The model number very well may be on a tag inside the cabinet or stamped on the chassis. As an example, a label around that era might look like:

Welcome to the Phorum!
I did not see it in the phorum gallery either although sometimes actual production models look different than early advertisements and some of those gallery pics are ads I think. Hopefully there is a model number tag in there.

Thanks for the info. Yes, I'm sure it is a Canadian model (as we live in Canada)
After work today I'm going to search for a model number tag on it, though I can't recall seeing anything like that.
