 Interesting, the cabinet for your set is very similar to my Canadian Philco model 3118B, as well as a British Philco (I can't remember the model) but it says that it was made in Philadelphia in the U.S. The dial is very similar in design to a  model 118/3118 dial except for the city names in the center, which probably explains why it has a model 16 style escutcheon since the opening is larger. Yes, I think that Radiodaze may be able to help, if they can figure out what used to be in the chipped and rubbed out section, that is unless you can find someone closer.
Regards
