1936 appears to be the year of the changeover from cloth-covered AC cord to brown rubber zip cord at Philco. All 1936 Philco models had cloth AC cord. It has been reported that a few 1937 models have been found with cloth cord - entirely possible given Philco's penchant for using up leftover materials - but the vast majority of 1937 Philcos, and all 1938 and subsequent prewar models, would have used rubber zip cord.
Thank you for this information
