As you noticed, the knobs from a 41-280 are too loose on the controls of your set. This is because the 1941 shafts still used a 1/4 flat; it was in 1942 that Philco switched to 1/2 flat shafts. As 49Stude mentioned, the knobs you need look like the 41-280 knobs, but are made for 1/2 flat shafts (1942 and 1946-47).
