Why so many Philcos?
#5

I remember someone telling me what the top four manufacturers were in Canada during the 1930s but I'm not sure of the order. The largest, beyond a shadow of a doubt, was Rogers-Majestic/Canadian Radio Corporation, they sold one of every four radios made in this country, under the Rogers name, Majestic, or DeForest-Crosley. I'm sure that next in line would be Philco followed by RCA or Canadian General Electric, then either Marconi or Canadian Westinghouse, and then Grimes-Phonola/Electrohome. Finding the statistics maybe more difficult, in this region you would think that General Electric was the largest followed by Philco, then Deforest-Crosley, RCA, Westinghouse, and Sparton, because of the dealerships they had.

Arran
