Since the lighted dial pics seem to be popular, why stop at just Philcos! Here's a thread to post your dial pics all aglow for those non-Philco brands in your collection. Here are a few of mine....some are just radios I worked on:
1939 RCA Victor Model 96T2
1936 RCA Victor Model T7-5
1941 Motorola Model 103CK2
1937 Sparton Model 987
1939 Silvertone Radio model 6424

"green" and "red" bands (though you can see the "yellow" too).
Note that the scales are visible in the "green" band setting but the color is gone, except for green (bottom). And that this requires a stack of glass plates @ about 10lbs. Better control of the light when mounted in the cabinet.

Wow, Russ, beautiful!!!
Here's my American Bosch 620. A classic, edge-lit dial with a magically-appearing dial pointer.
