Check on Ebay, MadGhost you would be surprised how often you see Philco All Wave antenna kits on ebay. I have picked up two of them (complete with instructions in the original box), these kits include standoff and lighting arrestors and you can usually pick them up for ~$20.00. I think most of the radios up to the early 40's did not have the built in loop antennas so it is not surprising you can pick up anything.
