It's my website, and I put the photos there since according to Philco Furniture History, those four models used the same cabinet. I really don't like using those poor quality illustrations, but I depend on other folks such as you to furnish better quality photographs. So...I'm hoping you would be willing to share photos for the Gallery. Icon_smile

Oh yes, it's an 18X. It will not say 18X inside. It will only say "CHASSIS TYPE 18" on the back of the chassis, and "PHILCO MODEL 18" on the tube layout sticker. But if it is like this one:

http://www.philcoradio.com/gallery/1935b.htm#b

but with two lyres instead of one, it's still an 18X.

Regardless if it's a 1933 or 1935 model, it was still a bargain.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the radio was removed before bidding was over so I didn't get a chance to bid.dconant — 04:10 PM
