TA Forbes Wrote:It escutchion came with the cabinet. It is black vice the brown ones commonly found on the US models. According to Ron it should have black rosette knobs on it, but I do not have any of them. An original tag that was included with the cabinet identified it as a model 334.

I have only one other Canadian set- a Grimes 465 Serenader. Excellent player for a 6 tube set. Also has a very sturdy cabinet.

I'm not sure what they would have used on a Canadian Philco 334 for knobs, what they did in Toronto didn't always jive with what they did in Philidelphia for knobs and escutcheons but maybe Ron has an ad showing what they were supposed to use.
Do you have a picture of your Serenader? If it's the set I think it is I have one myself or one similar, mine has a tuned RF amplifier stage so it should perform rather well once overhauled.
