Good deal, Steve Icon_thumbup

Bob: Here are some photos of the back of the set:

Dirty, but more or less complete. The 6F6G output tubes and the rectifier are missing. Some tube shields are also missing.

It has its original speaker!

It has an export 110/220 power transformer. I have noticed many 37-670/2670/38-2670 sets use this transformer, but I don't know if all of them do.

Some creative modifications. I do not yet know what the two toggle switches and the two prongs are for.

Not a good photo, but it shows the original audio interstage transformer has been replaced at some point.

While I was trying to take these photos, I had a supervisor who kept trying to get into the pictures:
