I took in a Philco 90 in today (single 47 output tube) and this fella would like to have original filter cap cans put on it if possible. He brought one with him that he says is for this set. This can is solid copper, verified that with a magnet but I don't think it's an original can for this set. Has a part #60054 on it that I don't find on the paperwork for this radio. Here's a picture of the copper can.

Is this an original can for this set? If not where would I possibly obtain two cans that are for this set?

Thanks,
Pepper
