]I recently inherited an console Philco Radio the 50 - 1720 at least that is what is stamped on back of chassis and I also looked at some of the old images on the photo facts I found on here and on ebay. although most of the descriptions include the fact that the phonograph had two arms one for 78s and one for 33s, my radio has only one and I want to make sure I have the correct model number for that phonograph. I have taken a few pics and would appreciate any help with this. I would like to restore as it was my dad's favorite radio.
           

P.S. I also wanted to know where I can find the handle for the door that opens up the phonograph compartment.
