Hi all, a friend of mine is getting this floor model and wants to know anything about it. I have the feeling it will end up on my bench so, any idea on what brand it is and model/chassis?  Thanks

Ron

Nothing under Philco, GE, Silvertone, Admiral, Crosley, or Airline so far...

Can't see the dial face clearly but it might be a Truetone.

Ok, my friend got the radio in her possession and it is a Silvertone chassis 101.616. It came with a complete parts list, schematic and alignment instructions! It's a 12 tube unit with a tuning eye! And the best part, it was FREE ! Icon_clap

Ok, since it isn't a Philco, maybe a moderator could put this in the "other radios( non-Philco )" category! Thanks.
