Need help identifying a Philco
#1

Hi everyone, very interesting site. Really neat hobby you guys have. I love the dedication and hard work thats gone into some of your stuff. These old radios are sooo cool. I'm really into the art deco styling.


Anyway onto my question(s).
I was given this by my father-in-law. He said it was his dads radio. I want to restore it and make it functional again. I looked through the gallery and on other sites and cant seem to match it to anything on there. I'm sure once I have a starting point I'll be pestering you guys for parts lol. Heres the pics (and no theres absolutely no ID tag anywhere in the cabinet). Thanks in advance.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
