118H, Original Wood Color/Finish-Updated with Photo
#10

I rely on the good folks who allow their photos to be used in the Gallery. Yes, some of the photos are less than ideal, but would you rather have no photos at all?

I know there are better looking examples than some of the sets shown in the Gallery. But I can't use them until someone submits photos of sets from their collections, and gives me permission to use them.

Remember, folks, everything on Philcoradio.com is completely free of charge.

Collectors are free to share their photos with whichever website they wish, of course. But yes, I do wish that more people would help me out with the Gallery project. I'm not profiting from this...

I know Ron, I wasn't pointing out the shortcomings of the gallery just that the example of a 118H in the gallery was not an example of a original factory finish.

Arran
