After observing your spkr it doesn't have a removable cone, yours is glued in on the outside edges. What I was referring to is a cone like the one in a model 20. It has a cardboard ring around the perimeter that unscrews that hold the outside edge of the cone in place. Philco didn't use this set up on just the early set but I've seen it used up to the 1937 models on some of the larger sets.
I would send it out to get a new cone. There is a place in NJ that does it.
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Wondering if I did it backwards.
If a coil was wound backwards, the oscillator would not work at all.
