The Philco 444,A527&B537 were called the People's sets and the Deutchland version were the Volksempfanger or People's Radio. Other than the Philco 444 I also have a very fine VE301Wn which are the more civilized first of the series. They are much more common most of the time and usually not molested like the VE301DYN or DKE38 bearing the Third Reich emblems and most have these ground off, drilled out or smashed cabinets. Also attempting to purchase these are harder because the emblems always have to be covered or the eeevilPay "Nazi Brownshirts" yank the listing even if it's being bid on as I found out on several ocations. It gets yanked and no notifications are given. Another variation of my VE301Wn made by Braun are the VE301G that look the same but have a wooden cabinet and run on DC mains. Yes I'm gravitating to the European sets as there are many VERY interesting goodies out there that Leowe and Telefunken have put out. Instead of derailing this post I will post pictures of my "Fanger" and Philco along with my other members of my radio family most of which are Deforest. Deforest are common in my location and of course Marconi being mostly Canadian or as I refer to them as Macaroni.
