Philco 29-124 Chairside
#1

Picked this up Tuesday when I went to pick up a Rada Chron cathedral and a Patterson tombstone.  I had no idea the guy had this.  After using a "call to a friend" to ask Kirk if he'd ever seen one of these, and with his prodding, I took it with me (thanks Kirk!!).  I gave it a quick GoJo cleaning to get the crud off.  

This radio looks like the chairside version of the 45 "Butterfly" table radio.  Many of the same styling cues in the grille, etc....

Looks like the knobs should be the hex type?  Anyone have a set of them?  I'd like to buy new grille cloth and put it away, even though it'll be some time before it gets restored.  I know there are two companies making it, but which is the closest match?

I can't seem to find any pictures online, except the one on our gallery page with a different model number.

Does anyone have one of these?
