My new Philco 660L
#1

In my neverending quest to find every 1936 Philco ever made, I have found a very rare one. Just finished the chassis rebuild and took some pictures before putting it back together. If you can see them, note the upside down numbers on the dial. Thought I would share them with everyone. Ron, feel free to use them in your next book. Icon_biggrin

That's one nice console! I love it!

That is very cool -- I've not seen one with the small lid like that. I'd love to see a pic of the back after you've installed the chassis, curious how it's set up. Thanks for sharing!

Hey Phil,

Thanks for taking the time to reply/post -- I think that's pretty neat. Great radio!
