Philco Canada 51A

Back together again:

Among the damage this radio suffered in shipping is the crack you see in the wood above the dial. Between that and the separation of some of the seams, it is amazing to me that the dial glass survived intact.

I'm wondering what to do about the two missing pushbuttons. There are several American Philcos that have similar buttons; but they are all rounded on the end, unlike the four remaining buttons on this one which are flat on the end. I suppose I could install a set of six American Philco pushbuttons, and call that good enough.

The next photo is for Paul:

Not perfectly focused, but not bad. I'll also add this photo to the Philcos all aglow gather here thread.
