Hello and welcome!

First of all...Wow, what a find for your first Philco! The 19X in this cabinet is very hard to find and seldom seen. Congratulations!

I must advise you to not plug the set in again until the chassis has been thoroughly checked for signs of trouble. This will include, but not be limited to, replacement of the electrolytic capacitors. You will want to replace all of the electrolytic and paper capacitors in the set for safety and reliability if you intend to use the set on a regular basis. We can help you do all of that.

If any of the tubes are not lighting up, their filaments could be bad; and if so, they will require replacement. It would be unusual for more than one to be burned out, however. They will not light up like a bulb; they will only have a soft orange glow in the top center (and in the bottom center if you can see it).

There are lots of places that sell tubes and other parts, so relax.

I'm sending you an email regarding your set, also.
