Here's my latest Philco TV restoration completed. This is the 1952 1802 model with a metal cabinet. I plucked this out of an antique store near Quincy, IL before the fishtankers could get it. I probably overpaid slightly for it, but I viewed it as a save more than anything. And....I was pleasantly surprised when I got it home and started cleaning it up to find it has what appears to be a very low hour Zenith CRT in it!! Tested like brand new on the Sencore CR70. After completely going through it, it gets a brilliant picture - like new!!! Only bad part is I don't have a back or interlock for it. Hoping to find some one with a parts set out there that maybe make me a deal on one. But that doesn't keep it from being a great vintage TV to watch!!!
