Hi SJHJR,

I can see the two pictures you posted. It is similar to this model:

I don't believe I have heard of a Code 225 before. I would like to see more pictures of the chassis, especially to see whether it has the large single tube shield over the RF & IF tubes, or if it has the individual cylindrical tube shields as used in the late versions of the 91.

No, the picture in the link above does not exactly match your set. I have known for some time that there are 91X cabinets like yours, but no one has ever sent a picture of one for the Gallery. I hope you will do so, it would be most appreciated. Nathan (one of our mods) is working on a brand new Gallery for us, and pictures one of these 91X models would be a welcome and needed addition. I would guess your particular 91X cabinet was probably produced sometime between late 1932 and early to mid 1933.

Model 91 was originally introduced in June 1932. It was also included in Philco's new 1933-34 model lineup (June 1933), but was deleted from the line by July 1933.
