Welcome to the Phorum!
Icon_wave

Very nice piece! If you use the Search at the top and search on "Glassware" you will find a number of discussions within the Phorum about the glassware in Radiobars. Hopefully something there will be helpfult for you.

Glad you found the Radiobar section in our library.

Another source for info on Radiobars is the Mulhollandpress folks. See the Phonographs pulldown section and you will find Radiobars (with 6 subsections including one on glassware).

Others can probably look at the chassis and instantly know which one it is. To me it looks like a 1936 model 116. It has the shadowgraph, the right eschutcheon and 11 tubes. A photo of a 116B (B is the cabinet style) is in our gallery: https://philcoradio.com/gallery2/1936a/#Model_116B

Schematics for 116 are here in our library: https://philcoradio.com/library/download...l.%201.pdf

The code 122 schematic (an updated version of the code 121): https://philcoradio.com/library/download...l.%201.pdf
Cheers,
Bob
