I picked up a Philco 41-315 console this morning at a garage sale. It's missing some tubes, needs a ton of cabinet work, and is basically a dirty mess, but what the heck, I need the experience and it cost me all of 20 bucks. After the lady helped me load it into my car she handed me a bunch of old papers she said came with the radio.
She wasn't kidding! The old papers contained a basically complete Philco Station Tab Call Letter Kit, a Philco radio Log, the loop antenna placard, installation instructions, and even the cardboard chassis inserts the installation instructions tell you to remove when you receive the radio.
I don't know how often you guys get stuff like this when you find a radio, but I was really surprised at the completeness of her "papers." What's this stuff worth? Here's some pics of it:
Thanks, morzh. I'll get the hang of this site eventually.
