BigRedDog, that is a great looking radio/phonograph. Looking at the dial and knob arrangement I am reminded of the 48-482, which is a table radio. I have restored one, and have a couple of others yet to restore. It is one of my favorite Philcos although the FM can be a bit of a pain to get squared away. This is what the 48-482 looks like. If you took the same chassis, and turned it on its side, I think you would have a very similar result to your 48-1270. Basically the same radio just added the phonograph to it. Look at the dial, even the numbering is the same, just turned 90 degrees.
