Hi,

Somewhere in the past I have seen a photo of a very Deco-looking Philco grandfather clock. The styling is different to the model 570, with more square cut lines not unlike the Westinghouse and Crosley sky-scraper models.

I notice that this clock does not appear in Ron's updated gallery. I thought I had originally seen it in Ron's book but searching repeatedly through the pages for it now I do not find it. Nor does it appear in the RadioAttic Archives. So where did I see the photo?? I'm starting to think I may have dreamed it up! Was it in the original PhilcoRadio gallery?

It seems I've been looking for one of these forever and I've never seen one turn up on Ebay or at a show.

So: do these exist? Where might I have seen the photo of one & was it genuine?

Paul

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
