Another Philco rookie joins the Phorum
#6

Hi Bob,

I don't claim to be any expert on radio values, but in my opinion if your 37-620CS is in any decent condition and you got it for $90 then you made a great deal.

Regarding the trim ring, what you want is Philco part no. 28-3967 which was indeed used on quite a few other 1937 models. I have original Philco Service Data for all the 1937 models (as do Ron and Chuck) and when I get the chance I will try to skim skim through the various parts lists and give you a list of other models using this same ring. Or if you have your eye on any particular parts chassis, let us know and we can verify whether the ring is the same.

By the way, in 1937 Philco listed replacement ring 28-3967 at a price of 35 cents. Most likely you will pay a little more than that nowadays.
