Interesting Packaging

That's neat about the 1937 Philco dial...

Philco did make some tables to go with the Baby Grand (cathedral) sets, but they are fairly rare and hard to find.

I have one of them, the June 1931 version of the Baby Grand table:

These sold for only $1.55 in 1931, and only 6000 were made.

An earlier version, with turned legs, also exists. I saw one once at Radiofest in Elgin one year. I have a photo of it somewhere.

While it was made for a Model 70 or 90, mine is rather rickety and I don't trust it to hold one of those up anymore, so it sits with nothing heavier than a small table model set.
