1935 Philco 45C "Butterfly"
#7

 That one looks like it has made quite a few trips to the service shop, not only has the output transformer been replaced but the speaker is a Utah replacement. Not only do I see the bumblebomb caps but I noticed that it has a few Mallory black cardboard Malory replacements and perhaps one Sprague "Black Beauty". With regard to the tone control capacitors I think that you could use the values from another Philco model of the same year with the same number of positions on the switch, usually it's either two or three. One thing that I will say is that the cabinet looks pretty decent for having an original finish, maybe a few touch ups and another coat of lacquer would be all that it needs.
Regards
Arran
