Best Performing Philco of the 1939 through 1942 period?
#1

Of course, we all know what the best performing Philcos are from the 1928-1938 period, but what is the best performing Philco from the 1939-1942 model period? Seems Philco sold a lot of radios during this period, at least around my area, in spite of them dropping their high fidelity models. In fact, one thing that kinda kept me from Philco for a while is because all you ever saw around here was the same few, eight tube, 1940 though 1942 models. So, which is the best Philco from this period right before the war? Icon_smile

No matter where you go, there you are.
