I just saw one of these today and thought it was some sort of home built affair. Guess I was wrong, though I think it had been refinished.

HI Here is my philco clock radio & lamp. It was blonde and some of the finish is getting thin, so I just cleaned it and I am going to keep it that way. I think it looks O K . Icon_smile I tried a square shade but it keep getting knocked around so I went with a round shade at a good will store. Icon_wink

Ok, the one I saw had a blonde finish and a smaller round shade. Crackle! I should have nabbed it!

you should have nabbed it...... FOR ME! Icon_twisted

But really, If you do get it,and it is in good condition don't pay more than $70, very good, maybe $100.

I am gonna scan this ones design into my computer, restore it in a program and then print out the new photo finish. I'll keep the file for when I get another one in this awesome condition, Icon_lol
