Condition: Used
Manufacturer: Philco
Wow! Can you believe the condition of this 1950 Philco radio? This was a fun find and the radio reeks with quality inside and out.
This radio has been completely gone over and serviced. It is working like the day it came out.

It has 3 bands on the dial---AM Broadcast, Police Band and a Short Wave Band. The AM works wonderfully and is bringing in good reception. The Police band requires a special antenna so I cannot tell if it is working correctly or not. The Short Wave requires an additional antenna strength also but I can hear some stations faintly.
The AM Band brings in wonderful sound, the type from yesteryear which was a robust clear sound of a high quality receiver. The deep wood case also gives the radio a rich sound.
The rear of the radio shows an internal antenna surrounding the wood case inside plus an external jack for what I am guessing would be a phonograph plug. There are also the adjustment ports in the back for the front pushbuttons.
The frame of the electronics is marked Oct 2, 1952. A full electronic schematic can be obtained for this radio upon request at no charge. I am very certain it is still available and hopefully I can find it for you if you need it.
The case is in great condition for a 55 year old radio. There is some wear here and there but cosmetically the radio looks very good as shown in the photos.
The case measures 12 inches tall by 20 inches wide and 12.5 inches deep. |
