Philco 41-221 Restored
#1

Today my grandson and I finished the restoration of this Philco 41-221. It has had all the rubber coated wiring replaced, alignment, new plastic dial cover and new power cord. I decided to keep the original finish because it was in great condition despite a couple scars on the top from a forgotten cigarette. Gives it character. After cleaning and a couple coats of lacquer it has new glory. It is really sensitive, brings in continuous daytime stations across the dial.
