Here's a link to technical information for your Philco. It is an AM and (now obsolete) police band and two additional shortwave bands that are still actively used. Revised description my bad!

Sets of this vintage need to be gone through by a knowledgable technician or hobbiest and some parts will certainly need to be replaced before it is safe to plug it in. Good news is that most parts can be repaired or replaced even after all those years.

Good Luck.
