 Not really, they seem to turn up on a fairly regular basis, what makes them interesting is the history behind them. There is another similar set that Philco made out of a MoPar car radio, in a chairside or coffee table style cabinet. Both are somewhat on the crude side since Philco was attempting to use up left over Ford and Chrysler car radios by converting them to AC operation.
