Here is my latest Philco. 37-116X. Original finish, knobs, and grille cloth. Electronically restored. It is a wonderful beast of a radio.

It is a great radio. A bit more rare then the Deluxe version.
Actually one was being sold during the last 4-5 months close to me.
I was bately holding myself from calling a guy. Were it not for the pandemic, I would.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

I restored one like that a couple of years ago. When they are right, the sound is very good!
Personally, I prefer the standard model with the shadow meter, like this one.
