The Canadian market Philco sets all had metal tags, but with few exceptions I think that they were all built in Toronto, Ontario. If it was a Canadian built Philco it could be 25-60 cycle or 50-60 cycle, but it would also not be marked as a model 144 it would be marked as a model 3144, if they sold any models using the 144 chassis. If Philco of Canada was like RCA-Victor of Canada LTD. there would be some models that they had in the U.S that they did not manufacture, some that they didn and some other models that would be unique to the Canadian market.
