Request for opinions on model 60B restoration
#5

If it will help, here's a little "Evolution of the Model 60B" that I threw together. All photos show what the original finishes should look like; nearly all of these have their original finishes.

http://www.philcoradio.com/tech/60evol.htm

It should be noted that the 38B was never issued in the 60MB tombstone cabinet.

Note also how the early 1936 (June 1935) set has a larger escutcheon than the 1935 (June 1934) model but are otherwise identical.

Edit: The June 1935 (1936 model) 60B pictured in the link above had an excellent original finish, and this picture really shows the correct colors for this model. Why did I ever sell it? Icon_sad
