My Hershey car show prize!
#5

Thanks guys! I'm very happy to have found this set. I've wanted a handpainted Philco for years and this was the last place I would have thought about finding one! It literally made my trip worth while.
This set is in really nice original condition. No rust or excessive paint loss. The stand is a bit of a mystery though. It may not be made by Philco but it was definetley designed for this set. the top of the stand is recessed and the radio fits exactly into it. Also the colors of the stand are an exact match of labrador gray color scheme. I agree with Marsupial- it's too much of a coincidence!
Anyway, I love the overall look of this Philco with this stand! She is definatley going to have a place of honor in my collection!
Kevin
