Please look at the attached pics.

does anyone know the Model # for this Philco? I can't find it in Ron's "Philco Radio 1928-1942" bible.

Thank you

39-6  https://philcoradio.com/library/download...20Book.pdf
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Looks like 39-6.

This one has different from what I have, meaning the grillwork, otherwise exact same.
They are listed together with 39-7, the latter having the preset buttons.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
