Philco used twist-lock electrolytics in some prewar Tropic (export) models, but not in the domestic (USA) line until after WWII.
I have one Canadian Philco that is identical to a Tropic model (model 39A, equivalent of a 41-722). I haven't pulled its chassis yet, but I'm hoping that it, too, has cloth wire instead of rubber; like my 39-3A1ACB and my 39-330AT.
