Ok I'll start the ball rolling I think it's a 620 from 1936.
Could use a 6A7,75, 80, and a 42 tube.
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Kirk,
 I agree it looks like a model 620.

Good morning Kirk! NEO6425 posted several photos of a 620 in his thread in Philco Electronic Restoration section of the forum. I agree with Terry and Henry. You've got a 620 on your hands there! Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary

Thanks all!
I knew one of my chassis was a 620 but they are all on the shelves unmarked, lol... Not to figure out what the other one is....
