    Appreciate an ID on this set. It looks like a 48-1263 in appearance but according to the gallery, that model  is AM only with a phono. The one in my picture is AM/SW with phono!

Hi Ron,

It looks like a model 48-1263 to me.
https://philcoradio.com/gallery2/1948a/#Model_48-1263

RadioMuseum says it has 2 bands, BC and SW.

Thanks Rodney, yes I did further investigating and saw Radio Museum and others describe it as AM/SW and phono. When trying to find a model/chassis number in the gallery here I saw what appeared to be the 48-1263 but it was described as AM only, no SW. That’s what threw me off as my picture clearly showed the SW band on it!
