jerryhawthorne I appreciate the offer. I'm really not sure how to tell if mine is a 50-60HZ model or 25HZ model just by looking. Or if it even matters for the parts I need. Any info would be appreciated. It is missing the large tube cover that usually has the sticker on it (it seems 90% are), and the cabinet only has one sloppily glued on rectangular shaped sticker that says Philco on the back at the top. No patent sticker or anything else. I know I can order reproductions. It's a single 47 tube type. Don't know if that would tell me anything or not. It's also missing one of the tube shields and it's base for one of the 27 tubes. Other than that I'm good. All knobs were there and in excellent shape. The escutcheon WAS good until I broke it. The cabinet was grungy and nasty but solid with no veneer missing or damage of other kinds. I ordered a replacement escutcheon and it came in and is perfect. The chassis is very clean underneath but had a lot of corrosion on the rear half of the outside, apparently from leaky electrolytics. Bad looking but repairable. If I could convince you to part with either one of, or both, tube shields that would be great.
