Dang, I may not even HAVE to restore the radio (much).

Isn't that a red modern capacitor? amung the tubes?

It was in someone's garage so the inside is pretty caked in dust but heck, that can happen in a mere 2-3 years easily. There are pieces of duct tape in there with black marker saying "Philco 41-608", like on the speaker and the side of the chassis.

Someone's had this apart and done work on it. That might be why the radio is working at 73 years of age. I need to replace the power cord, though. It has the original one with what looks like a 50 year old dangerous style "repair" end with thin, loose cardboard coverinng the 120v wires/screws inside.

Also, take a look at how new those bolts washers look that are holding in the chassis:
