Info on Philco 91D Highboy
#4

What Bob and Terry said.

The only thing to add is: if you are so emboldened and curious as to slide the chassis out, it weight about 25 lbs or so and is inconvenient enough to hold (sharp sheet metal edges) so depending on the physical condition you may or may not find it easy to do.
If you intend to keep it as a family heirloom and want it restored, and yourself are not up to the task, fins a local Antique radio club (should be enough near where you are, in NY or nearby in New England) and get it overhauled.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
