Hello, my name is Stephen.  I've always loved the old tube type radios.  Currently, the only other tube type radio that I have is a Kenwood TS-830S.  I joined this group today, hoping to identify an old Philco which I had recently purchased for $35.  I believe it to be a model 91X, but cannot find anything online which matches it perfectly to confirm my belief.  Mine is chassis 91 225.  It is BC band with no 3rd position on on/off switch, and 2 speakers.  The chassis codes that I can find are as follows:
Codes 121 and 123 - single band, single speaker
Code 221 - single band, dual speaker
Code 126 - dual band, single speaker
Code 226 - dual band, dual speaker
I can find nothing on the 225.   
The unit appears to be complete, and I would like to bring it back to life, and refinish the cabinet.  This would be my first attempt at doing such a thing.   Attached are some photos.
