Hello and congrats on your new little Philco! To answer your questions:

1.) There are others far more experienced with toners than I (Kirk, are you here?), so I'll let those folks chime in. I would think Perfect brown for the main body, with something a bit darker for the insets, but, again, others will know better.

2.) Radio Daze has the correct decal for your Transitone. Should be set DCL-PH1 on Page 2 of this page: http://www.radiodaze.com/category/598.aspx

3.) It appears your set does not have the correct knobs on it. Assuming the photo of your set in the photo gallery is correct (Scroll down on this page: http://philcoradio.com/gallery/1941b.htm#u). If that's the case, then the Generic Knobs for 1930's Radios (KGen-5) way down towards the bottom of this page at Renovated Radios would be correct. http://www.renovatedradios.com/parts.html Believe yours would be the medium size knobs.

Best of luck with your restoration!
