Ok- Wooden Philco number 6 has just made it to my doorstep- a 46-1203 Code 122: my first postwar wooden, as well as first Philco Phonograph. Have yet to give her a look over. Got her from a friend(in trade for some repair work of a simple nature on a bat-box(Motorola) bakelite. )
Any interesting thoughts here?
And is the finish on this one a "photo finish" type? The dark finish is flaking off, to reveal a very light wood underneath, almost paper thin veneer, so it would seem to be so to me. But I thought I'd as the experts!
And I found an interesting 37-620 tombstone in an antique for $175. But I have to find the money first...
Thanks! Scott
