I'm having no luck in locating an original or a repro arch support for a Philco 70. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks!!!!

I assume, sorry to use that word, your talking about the wood piece that goes around the back top of the radio. If it is missing, just find someone who has some wood working equipment and make one for you. If I misunderstood your needs, attach a picture.

I would assume you need a replacement back piece which in this century would have made from plywood mirror sawn and glued. Not so?
