Philco Model 249 made in England
#2

Welcome to the Phorum, fklown!  That's one heck of a Philco 'yardstick' you've got there!  Could you possibly post a closer view of the system, and any labels still on it.  A photo of the chassis would be helpful too.  Our folks here will help figure this one out.  Personally, I've never seen this set before.
I've seen worse examples of water damage than can be easily seen in your photograph.  DO NOT PLUG IT IN!  Make sure it is totally dry inside and out and thoroughly inspect all components before thinking of applying power to the set.  Being made in England it's possible that it is a 230 volt set ... more reason to go through it completely.  Take care.  - Gary
