Just to extend this - here is my 37-630EZ, found in New Zealand... I was going to fully restore it, but the longer I keep it the happier I am to not touch the cabinet or grille cloth at all... This is my favourite Philco of all time, the first Philco I ever got (years ago) and I've never even powered it up... yet.

Its nice to see other cabinet variations for this model... I wonder how many other countries this radio can be found in now? (As opposed to how many it was exported to originally)...
