I'm looking to pick up the above (wife loves the tapestry grill cloth). Question is how hard is it to find the knobs? Missing all three, bear in mind this an early one without the local/distance switch. Learned this from Ron's nice book. Handy reference. All three knobs are missing, the large tuning, and two smaller for on/off and volume. Radio is working. Asked not to plug it in again. Cabinet looks very nice, asking for more pictures all the way around. Heck, another Philco probably coming my way. Local (relatively) no shipping.
