Philco 16-b Cathedral
#1

I picked this gem up last year and hit a home run on the price. It did not need much to get it playing good and was very clean inside, I was surprised how nice it was. You know me that I like my cabinets to be mint so I did a refinish job and new cloth. One of many outstanding large cathedrals by Philco in my collection. Thanks for looking Fred Taylor Dallas Tx

Thanks old timer.

16B is an imposing piece even if not refinished, and your refinishing has made it that much more imposing.
A beautiful set, a great job.

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.
