It’s been a bit since my last Philco find.  Been messing around with some solid-state stuff and need to get back to a good old hollow state chassis.  Picked this up today for my birthday present from my awesome and somehow very understanding and beautiful wife.  Need to find the matching speaker now.   

Matching Speaker search is over.  Needs some work but for the price it was a great deal.
