Philco 38-3XX Console Radio
#13

A collector friend, who has since passed away, used to sell competing radios back when those sets came out.  He said the slogan in their shop was "No Squat, No Stoop, No Sell."   I have to add that as a collector he had Philco radios in his collection, but this was a story from back-in-the-day when shops were competing fiercely for sales.
