Philco 40-95T
#1

My Dad met with his tax accountant today. He spotted a radio in the office, and mentioned that I collect and restore Antique Radios, so his accountant is going to give it to him to send to me.  Icon_biggrin
I looked it up in the gallery.
One thing I'm curious about: since most collectors tend to collect AC sets, I'm curious how many battery sets tend to survive? Over 48,000 were made, but I have not seen this radio pop up in discussions here or on the Facebook groups. I'm on the West Coast, so Radios are harder to come by than they are East of the Mississippi. I wonder how common this set might be at, say, Kutztown?

I'm posting from my iPad, and the Flickr app is not giving me the proper code to post pic inline on this post, so I'll add the pic tonight after work. It looks to be in excellent condition, though.

Blessings,
