OK, as I guessed that was the russian-english-russian Google job that somehow made its way here.
Here is the faithful translation:
Thank you, Joseph.
I am proud of my two Philcos which Mike helped me buy. These are my Philcos 37-640 and 37-116.
In the 37-640. I had to partly replace veneer on the side walls' top corners and gave it all new lacquer coat. Did not change the grill cloth, though this is also desirable.
37-116 is a masterpiece of rational design, I love it. Plus the sound is exceptional.
PS. Pete also said he tried to iron the grillcloth (I bought new chevron from Kenny) having first sprayed it with a little water (a common thing in ironing) and it developed spots after that.
Is it a common thing and can it be reversed or is a new cloth purchase necessary?

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
