Hi Radio People,
I found this site searching the web about my old Philco radio. Best I can tell, it's a 1942 table top model. It is is excellent condition as far as the cabinet goes, and it still lights up and the sound, though staticky still comes out. My father bought me this years ago from an antique dealer. The cabinet on this is really nice, no waterspots or deep scratches at all. The glass and lettering are very nice also. I don't know alot about these old radios, but they sure are pretty. You don't see craftsmanship like that anymore. I'll try to upload a pic soon, so you all can see it. Be Well, Mike
