Help on ID of two Philco's I bought
#6

Radio Phil, we do welcome you here! Icon_biggrin

I merged your two threads into one as they are on the same subject and the photographs in both are good ones and deserve to all be together in the same thread. Icon_smile

The cathedral is an early 1936 version of the model 60B, if it has an AC cord. Now, if it has a multiwire cable coming out from its back, then it is the battery-operated version, Model 38.

The tombstone your lady (wife? girlfriend?) is holding is a 1936 model 620B. The 620B is not a large tombstone but it looks giant with your lady holding it so she must be quite petite. I noticed the $75 price tag on the 620B, which I think is a bit high in its current condition, but if the chassis is clean and rust-free, then you did OK if this is what you paid for it.
