They finally arrived!
#1

The two Philco's I purchased at Kutztown back in May finally got to AZ.

First is a 38-15. The set is in pretty good condition needs a lot of cleaning and appear to be untouched except for the added Radio/Phono adapter.

Second is a 1936 610T bullet. This is a lot bigger then remember it being. It does have 3 bands. Its in pretty good shape also.

Going to be a fun couple of projects. They are both keepers.

Just love that Bullet cabinet, and It will sound nice too when done.

Good Luck with them.

I have always loved the 1936 bullet because of the oval dial! Philco made a pretty good five-tube set!

Keith, +1 on the bullet radio. I have that model in my shop for daily listening. Great sound.
