Radio Identification
#9

Actually, I don't think this is really worth restoring but ok for a few parts. One tube is actually rusted in place. The RF coil is shot as is the speaker. This is all that is left of the cabinet. My concern was I had never seen one like it even in pictures. I do think the cabinet is factory due to the precision cuts to make the top bend, etc. I would hate to part it out if there is a die hard Philco guy who needed it as an unusual example. I have two Transitones and my first thought was an offbeat company was using those chassis. That's what makes this hobby so interesting. Bob
