What model is this?
#1

Just inherited this from a family friend. Trying to figure out the model and year. Looked through the gallery and couldn't seem to find an identical match.

Having trouble posting attachments...no idea why. It allows me to choose the photo and when I post it the photo doesn't show up. Suggestions? 
Was hoping there was a model number or something printed onto the radio that I wasn't seeing. Lol

I'm leaning towards a 640 or 650B but can't tell the difference w/o seeing the back.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Congratulations you've got a 650B!

Here's the services info: http://www.nostalgiaair.org/pagesbymodel...013824.pdf
A cleaner schematic can be found here: https://philcoradio.com/library/download...l.%201.pdf
Was built in the Spring of 1935 till Spring of 1936 for the 1936 model year.

ps If you are wondering about the bandswitch knob it is a Philco and sporadically used in 1936 only.
