Philco Canada 51A
#16

Thanks, Paul. Some Canadian Philcos, I think, look better than American models. And this is one of them. I can't think of any American Philco that had a decorated glass dial like the one on this set.

Well, this is the wrong section for cabinet restoration, but here is why I can't put the 51AT chassis into the cabinet yet:

I bought this radio a year or two ago from a Canadian eBay seller, and some of the cabinet's joints and seams came loose in shipment. This will help stabilize the cabinet.
