116B dial drive disassembly surprise
#21

Hi mbhdesign, about 2 years ago I came across a 16B, the predecessor of your 116 at a local auction house. I knew it was one of Philco’s best at the time and ran over to it. Once I got to looking at it my enthusiasm waned. In addition to the cabinet falling apart, the stench emanating from it and the obvious rodent damage was a killer. I walked away! It was the only time I ever remember seeing one in the raw.
