I have a working Philco 52-T1612 that has a bad power cord.  The TV was recapped and restored over 7 years ago and has been used sparingly since.  I recently moved and was testing the set when I notice the worn cord.  I have replaced this with a standard run of the mill modern 2 prong cord, stop gap, but I don't want this to be a permanent solution for fear of damaging the prongs.

It looks like the cord that was on the TV is not original, so I am looking to find a replacement cord.  What I really need is the specifications for the plug end that goes into the 2 prongs of the TV set (pin spacing, pin diameter).  Once I have that, I can begin my quest for a replacement cord.

Any info the Phorum can provide me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks !

P.S.  It's nice to be back after a 7-year absence.
