Philco 96 Whooped boy
#4

The speaker has a slight crack/rip easily fixable and the chassis is clean with nothing missing but the dial string will need replacing. It had all the tubes but 2 (45's) and all were good and I have picked up two good 45's for it. It just looks like someone tossed or abused the cabinet over the years. I have high hopes for it, maybe make the missing trim pieces (may not be as fancy) and glue and such should bring it back.
