Hello All,

I just recently moved into my grandmothers home and nothing had been touched since she lived there. In the basement under a cloth I found a beautiful Philco radio and started to do some research with my trustee iPad. After searching through a dozen years and endless models I finally found out what she is. The radio is in great condition and still works perfectly. When I get home I will try to post some photos.

Now....a few questions....first....could anyone suggest what to use to polish the wood up? Or should I even touch it? Secondly, where could I find serial numbers, or any information that would be important? I would like to have it appraised for insurance value also, any suggestions in the WV/ east coast area?

Thank You Very Much

DubVNurse
