I just got a Grandfather Clock Radio, it has a Philco Radio Model 70 Superheterodyne radio, with a Hammon clock. It has a paper label with says it was made by The Dearborn Co, Chicago, IL. Can any one give me more info on this radio or point me in the right direction. The clock works fine, so far I know I need to replace the cord on the radio. I would like to restore this right not half way. It is a nice clock/Radio. I am new to radios because I've always collected clocks, looks like I may be getting into radios somewhat. I've added a photo, any help would be great.

Note from site admin: Sorry, but the photo which was attached to this post is no longer available.
