I don't know how many battery operated Philcos have survived, but there are still a lot of them out there in barns, attics, storage units and collections. The guys who like to hoard thousands of radios probably have several.
I've seen a few 40-95T sets around, but I have never owned one that I can recall at present. I don't really care for the styling, but that's just my opinion. It was OK for its time and intended purpose. I don't know how many show up at Kutztown; to be honest, I've never paid any attention as I am usually focused on certain items when I go to K-town - and I usually don't find them
. Maybe I'll be more open-minded this time around and who knows what I will find. 
Oh, Jeff, when you get that radio, we could use more - and better - photos of that model for the Philco Radio Gallery (hint, hint).
Please?
