I've been wanting a vintage radio but they can be understably expensive. I came across this case for $20 and really couldn't say no. By no means am I any level of expert on any brand of vintage radio whatsoever. just like the look of them. everything in my home is vintage and it was kind of the last thing I was missing.

If anyone knows the year and model or any information about this , I'd appreciate it. there's a small white info sticker on the inside that said philco so I knew that much (: he told me he got it in the 70s and it was old then so he thought maybe 50s.


I would like to find knobs at least. Any help is appreciated

Some day, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day, accept this justice as a gift

I've added an attachment several times, it's not posting it. I can't do anything about that I guess.
