Philco 37-610B?
#1

I picked up this Philco at the Kutztown show this weekend. Am I correct in that it's a 37-610B? The label's torn off. The photofinish is shot. Any recourse?

Yes, it is a 37-610B.

Only recourse would be to recreate the faux finish with paint, photo copying, or dynoc, or to use it as a marquetry experiment and put real stuff on it.

Well first you would need to get a group of friends and relatives to set up accounts and shill bid for you, then hope that the winning bidder is too stupid to notice, and hope that you covered up you misdeeds well enough not to get caught by fleabay (assuming that they actually care).
