Question for Ron, shadowmeter escutcheon differences?
#3

Thanks Ron!! It is most definately a Canadian made Philco model# 38-09A (Toronto). The shadowmeter dial-frame is on the radio. I bought the radio cheap. The brass "twist-on" bezel & glass is missing. I have spares of both those parts if they will fit. I figure all those "stamped" metal parts were made by Philco USA and shipped to Canada for their production runs? If not, no big loss, I will keep searching. The price I paid will be worth it in other parts alone. Seller said it works "no-hums", so I figure it had new filter-caps added somewhere down the line. Cabinet is in excellent condition also. Thanks again for all your help in keeping me informed on the vintage Philco sets!! Sincerely, Randal
