I'm waiting to hear back from the owner. This is the only pic. They say the finish is untouched original and that it's a Philco.

Looks like a Majestic to me. It is not a Philco.

It's either a Canadian Made Rogers set or a Majestic (Canadian or American). The cabinet has also been stripped at some point and/or received a mediocre refinish.
