I have one that I re-capped and refinished a few years ago. he one in the eBay auction has some sort of nondescript grille cloth in it.

Cute set, but not one of Philco's more impressive sets. It's a TRF, if memory serves, and not as good as it looks.

I thought it was interesting looking and suspected TRF.
Thanks much
