Hi Norman,

Which variant of the model 60 is it? There were a number of different style cabinets. You mention it being a 'cathedral model'. This page summarizes the evolution of the 60:

BTW - It would be helpful (and interesting!) if you could post a picture of yours. Icon_smile

Great! This is the photo gallery entry for your model:

Here's a thread discussing the appropriate toner colors to use on what looks like the 1936 (June 1935) model:

According to the info in the gallery ( http://www.philcoradio.com/gallery/1936a.htm#f ):
"...the five-tube Model 60B is identical to the 1935 version except for the larger escutcheon and different dial scale on the 1936 model."

So I would think that info should still be correct for yours.
