Philco Model 256F UK Model ?
#1

Hi Everyone.
My first time on this Phorum . I am a collector and restore vintage radios as a hobby. This beautiful UK Philco radio I picked up from South Yorkshire England. What is interesting is I cannot find any reference on the internet regarding this model 256F. None of the UK Phorums have seen this exact model either.
The problem is, its complete except the gramophone section which is missing. The only set I can see is the American 26J the cabinet looks identical but chassis completely different. I cannot see any pictures of the Gramophone deck for the 26J on any sites. I wanted to try and find the correct deck for this set before restoration. Would there be anyone out there who could send me pictures of the 26J deck please ?
Please see the pictures below.
Thank you for your help in advance Icon_smile
