Picked this up today. 1929 Philco 76 (I think) lowboy. The guy I bought it from said his grandmother bought it new in 1929, and when she passed in 1970 this was one of the few things he asked for. It was professionally refinished 25 years ago because his son has spread ink all over the top. It is extremely clean but is missing the tube shield and 3 tubes.....naturally both 45's are gone. But It is so clean, and I liked the tapestry grill cloth so I bought it.
