I guess I should apologize, I was just assuming from your pictures that it was. Neither an "expert" nor layman told me that information. I'm just a Noob to Philcos, as you know, asking a question. I try to read all I can, but never came across this subject before, that the two-toners were just '36 shouldered tombstones models. Maybe the experts should harp a little more about this subject so us noobs get it straight.

Well, a two-tone refinish should help my "whiteish" situation out a little.
