I am starting a search for a Philco cathedral style tabletop radio to restore for the guest bedroom in my 1940's decorated cottage in Michigan. The mahogany furniture to be complemented was made in 1945 and was inherited from my parents. I am not familiar with these radios. Please make a suggestion for me to look for. I will be doing the restoration myself in my shop here on Long Island in NY. Keep in mind parts availability, cabinet restoration and production volume. Rarity does not matter to me. I just want a nice piece of quality functional furniture to complete the decor.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the radio was removed before bidding was over so I didn't get a chance to bid.dconant — 04:10 PM
