Philco 90 veneer
#6

It looks fine (correct) for an early production 90 cathedral.

Early production 70 and 90 cathedrals had the veneer wrapped around vertically as in your photo. Later in production of these cabinets, Philco switched the direction of the veneer to run front to back (horizontally). I think one of the four 90 cathedrals I have owned over the years had the side-to-side, over-the-top veneer like yours. It was an early model with push-pull 45 outputs.

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
