Philco 37-610 (1937)
(wood tube tombstone radio w/SW/Aux or BT)

Philco 37-610 (1937)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!
A ONE-DAY WONDER!

1937 was the first year Philco began adding the year of manufacture to its model numbers. Thus the 1936 model 610 became the 37-610 in 1937. Five tubes, three bands with a unique glowing dial where the pointer moves up and down to illuminate just the band scale you're using. The shouldered tombstone cabinet sports an all-original finish with a nearly perfect faux finish front panel (this "Philcote" finish is usually hopelessly chipped or damaged). It's unusual to find a time capsule nearly 90-year-old Philco with such a good original finish. All original paper labels present in the cabinet and on the chassis. An exact reproduction grille cloth was used. The grommets were changed on the RF sub chassis, new chassis support grommets, filter and paper capacitors replaced. Tubes all tested good. Plays loud and strong, receiving all of my local stations. Rectifier tube mounted high on top of the power transformer, a cool feature on some 1937-38 Philco models. Requires a long wire external antenna to receive stations or use the 3.5mm aux cord, included at no extra cost, to play your own content. 18"H x 13-1/4"W x 9-1/2"D.
