Re: Philco Radio Model ID
Mid 1930s going by the design, I can find very similar models, but not this exact one.
Thanks |

Re: Philco Radio Model ID
Have you looked on the excellent Philco Service database site?
I've usually found something on that. Alternatively the Rider Perpetual Service might have it. David. |

I don't know how well that website deals with British Philco though?

Re: Philco Radio Model ID
There were wooden versions of the people's set. Just a thought.

Re: Philco Radio Model ID
How about a picture of the inside /chassis, I may have a radio that looks like the one in question. Mick.

Re: Philco Radio Model ID
Visually it is quite close to the Model 99 Empire Seven radio of 1937.
Philco GB made many variations during that time. Not all of them were based on the Philco 444 'Peoples Set' chassis. Some were made for AC mains, or DC mains or battery operation. |
