Philco 48-206
#3

I have one of these also. I cleaned it with a mild soap solution. Yours looks in amazingly good condition. Mine is also. Wasn't really interested in one, but the price was right and a friend restoring a 42PT94 wanted to mold a new grille to replace the distorted Tenite grille. He used the grille from mine as a mold and made a great reproduction for his radio, which I restored the chassis on, and returned my grille to be reinstalled on my radio. One of the few AA5 radios I have with an almost perfect cardboard back, rubber power cord and plug on mine are still in serviceable condition. Mine also has the UL label and the Philco Service stickers. For an AA5 these perform well.
