Hi and welcome.

Unlike your 41-295, your 39-40's off-on toggle switch just under the top edge of the speaker grille is original. Philco did not start using the far left pushbutton for an off-on switch until the 1941 season.

This means all eight pushbuttons on your 39-40 may be set to favorite AM stations, not just the last seven as on your 41-295.
