Philco 84B variants?
#2

I just looked at Bulletin 216, which gives cabinet replacement parts for 1934-35 models and pictures most of them.

The 2nd version 84B in this Bulletin appears to use 70/90 cloth and the same dial scale as the 1st version 84B.

As this 2nd version 84B cabinet was carried over into the first half of the 1936 model year, it probably did receive a different dial scale at some point in its production. I seem to recall seeing that different dial on some 2nd version 84B sets.

Edit: Yeah, I am always open to better photos for my Gallery...anytime anyone wished to submit one or more. Icon_smile True, the 2nd version 84B in my site's Gallery does not have the correct cloth, but the coloring on the cabinet is correct.

(edited to clarify, editing in italics)
