Philco Mystery Control
#4

That mystery control is in better condition than most I've seen. Usually the dials have warped over the years. This was a top of the line feature, and commanded a premium price. That is the reason it was teamed with top-end consoles. 1939 to 1941 various models had the feature until the war effort ceased radio production.
An interesting note gleaned from the Philco Radio Gallery, located at the bottom of the page, was that with this introduction Philco ceased development of high-fidelity receivers! Good luck on your search! Take care, - Gary
