I like your meticulous attention to labeling all the old components, it will minimize errors and make future reference to your pictures a lot easier if you need to do that.
For future reference where did you find your H.V. capacitors? When I rebuilt my little Pilot tv many moons ago I scoured hamfests to find my H.V. caps. I bought enough to do a second Pilot tv I have, but if I ever get around to that I'd rather use new caps.
I'm also looking forward to seeing a picture on that old Philco again. During a radio club open house I once had, I hooked the little Pilot to a VCR so I could use channel 3 or 4 and played old Laurel and Hardy movies. There's some old tv gear around you can use to make a low-power tv transmitter, but I haven't fooled around with any of it yet.
