PHILCO 46-1213
#37

I am new to the Philco Phorum and new to the world of vintage radio restoration but here goes....
Far from a full-time pursuit; but, I too have just (barely) started restoring a Philco 46-1213.
As part of this restoration, I should replace the existing 12" speaker of which the cone is badly damaged (... and who knows what else!).
I understand that I can have the speaker restored including re-coning; but, for now, I believe I would rather replace it looking to hear this Radio-Phonograph as near as possible to the way it was intended to sound in 1946. Your comment on this choice is welcome.
So ... Please direct me to most likely sources of an actual Philco 36-1606 replacement part; or let me know if you(?) have one in stock.
I understand that I may have to settle for a "best match" replacement [from either vintage/used or newly manufactured(?)] so some direction on that would help as well.
Of course I still may not find exactly what I am looking for so, also, if there is a source for vintage speaker repair/restoration that you feel you can recommend please let me know.
Here's the spec. info I have:

Speaker Part No.: 36-1606
Speaker Type: Electro Magnetic Dynamic LS (moving-coil with field excitation coil)
Field Coil: 450 ohm
Hum-Bucking Coil: 0.2 ohm
Voice Coil: 3.3 ohm

Thank you.
