That's a great find TA! There are some real nice Philco's showing up here. $59.99 is an amazing price.

NICE! Someone obviously did not know what they had! (Or maybe they did... You haven't gotten inside yet...)

Well........

Actually I dived into it a couple of weeks ago. The usual issues that go with the smaller tube-count 37/38 sets - a narrow chassis with a lot of stuff underneath. AND that dumb RF deck.

Plays very well now. Sound is very good for a small speaker, I attribute this to the cabinet.
