I couldn't resist this for $20.  From 1929, a tabletop metal cabinet Philco 65 unfortunately without the F-10 external speaker.  Are those soup cans in there the electrolytics?  I haven't had a chance to look too deeply so I don't know how original it is.  I probably will wait until I can source the F-10 before I dive into it.  I do have an H-2 10" speaker that has the same specs as the F-10 so I can probably get it working and adjusted before I acquire the beautiful little cabinet speaker.  Sorry for the poor quality photos.
