If anybody wants one, there is a Philco 112 higboy in an antique shop in Yucco Valley, California. I told the manager/owbner that the $450 price was a factor of ten too high. However, the cabinet can be saved without refinishing, a big plus. Just some touch-up to the legs would be needed. I suspect this may be one of the models with transformers which go bad with green corosion on the wires. Is it?
