I just added a 1931 Philco 90 to my collection. Icon_biggrin

I think this is the early version, based on the molding/carving style of the base. Here's a couple pics. If anyone can give me some info as to parts I might need, I'd appreciate it. I know I need the 2 missing tube shields, and the speaker is not original, so if anyone has an idea of what speaker I need in order to return this to a more original state, the info would be most welcome. Also, it seems on this era Philco, there was some kind of curved-top cover over the tubes on the Left. Would this model have had that? Thanks all for any help and info you can provide. Icon_thumbup
