UHello!  I am new to your group and looking forward to your advise.  I have several Philcos and am now retired and looking forward to repairing them.  I am new to radio repair and have limited electronics background.  Up first is my 38-12 (hopefully with pix attached).  I have a new Dial Face on its way and my first question is about the Dial pointer.  I believe this is friction fit but mine is not removing itself easily.  Any advice on how to remove one which is séized without damaging it?
The Dial Face appears to be encased in knurled edges from the face plate.  Do I just insert something to open up the knurled edges so I can insert the new Dial Face?  
Any help is much appreciated!
