Marty,
I do still have my first Philco 38! I dug it out of storage to compare it with my new one. There are some subtle differences between the two. My new 38 has a smaller dial escutcheon and the dial scale is made out of a red material, whereas my first one has a larger dial opening and the scale is the more familiar yellowish color. Maybe an earlier/later production thing?
