The main difference between the 41-712 and the Canadian 35A, besides the lack of rubber-covered wires in the Canadian version, is the audio output tube used.
The 41-712 uses an octal-based 6K6EG.
The 35A uses a loctal-based 7B5E.
And my 35A is a 25 cycle set (the A suffix = 25 to 40 cycle AC).
Anyway...
I started working on this set after lunch today. By dinnertime, I had managed to remove all of the paper and electrolytic capacitors as well as all of the original resistors.

This set had all but one of its original paper capacitors. Of those, only one was a USA Philco cap - the others have "Made in Canada" printed on their shells.

The one original electrolytic was also made in U.S.A.
The next job is to melt out the innards from each of those caps and restuff them with new components.
