Here we go again...

My subject this time is not a Tropic, nor is it a Fisher stereo receiver.

It is a Philco model 604C from mid-1936.

The 604 is a five tube AC/DC table model radio.

It is unusual in that it has the dial and controls on top, with a Bakelite control panel mounted on a cabinet made of Walnut veneer.

Some chassis shots:
