Welcome the Phorum Joel!
The issue with dials flaking off the glass is a fairly common one. I suspect it may be related to the heat from the dial lamps used in those sets - and how much a particular set was used.
In any case the go-to place for replacement dials is Radio Daze. According to service info for your set the dial part number is 27-5890. The dial for your set is shared with the Philco 48-1256 model.

BTW - Radio Daze is in the process of focusing just on that business and reducing their inventory of radio restoration parts so you might take advantage of that sale as well.
Good luck! You'll find lots of help here on the Phorum.
