Canadian Philco 334
#8

Most of the Dominion Electrohome/Grimes schematics are in the Radio College of Canada manuals but at the time that was made it would have been listed under Serenader or Phonola. It's a similar but different set from mine, mine has a round dial and a different cabinet, but the same tube lineup. I bought it at a flea market years ago but it was missing the original speaker, someone had fitted a PM speaker in it with a filter choke. Grimes-Phonola/Electrohome used to make a lot of private label sets, Serenader was a brand sold by the Robert Simpson Co. department store and mail order catalog chain. Viking radios were sold by the T.Eaton Co, Arcadia sets were sold by McLeods Hardware. Often they would use the same chassis in a Serenader, a Viking, an Arcadia and they would also market sets throught their own dealer network under the Phonola name.
