This comment implies that the radio is an upright console radio and not the typical A-801 chairside.

Is this true, or is it a chairside which looks like the A-801 in the Gallery?

https://philcoradio.com/gallery2/1942b/#Model_A-801

If it is a console and not identical to the set in the Gallery, then please help us out by posting a photo of the radio cabinet itself.

Thanks.
