Another British Philco
#14

Well, let's just make this the thread on the 261. Icon_smile

I was looking at some pictures online, and I see the 261 was also available in a cabinet that is nearly identical to the USA model 37C:

as a tombstone, very similar to the Canadian 3118B:

and as a console, which looks like a small version of a USA 91X:

I suspect the 261 that looks like a 37C and the 91X-esque console were issued first, and the tombstone and the "Five Star Baby Grand" set like mine were issued later.

Photos forthcoming...
