370 Chairside
#6

They offered that chairside for at least two years I think, one is the 370 and the other is the 71LZ, the 370 is from the 1931 model year, the 71LZ is from the 1932 model year. The chassis are nearly identical except that the 71LZ uses 6.3 volt tubes instead of 2.5 volt tubes. According to the gallery Philco produced 16,285 units with this cabinet, it doesn't say how many were 370s and how many were 71LZs though. One thing I've wondered about is what they did withe the tone control switch that they would normally have on a 70/71 chassis?
While it's not rare it's not common either, but chairside sets are always interesting. I think it's probably worth the trip to get since it looks complete, and the price is very reasonable. One thing I can see is that it looks like it has some veneer damage on the bottom rail but that's easily repaired.

Arran
