I picked up this radio a few months ago in PA. Yesterday I finally got started on it and puled the chassis out for cleaning. I thought it was a code 121, because that is what the label said on the cabinet. The label was blue and silver and below the typical paper label I see on my other Philco's. I seem to remember that the blue labels were on the chassis, not the cabinets, but I am not sure.

Now that I have it where I can see it well, the chassis is stamped Code 125, which it is, as I can see from the chassis layout. Has anyone ever seen Philco do this? Or is it more likely that someone switched the chassis out some time ago. It is all original except for the E caps.
