From all of the Philcos that have crossed my bench...and they number in the hundreds, I never bothered to count them...out of those that have 110 pF caps in bakelite block shells, the majority were small paper caps. I have encountered a few that had mica caps encapsulated in the tar, though...but as I said, the majority were paper.
As Pete (AI2V) said, dipped micas are excellent replacements for these. And, yes, I replace them as a matter of course in the Philco sets that use them.
