Philco 48-225 (1948)
(plastic tube table radio)

Philco 48-225 (1948)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

This beautiful reddish burgundy Philco reminds me of Christmas! It must have led quite a sheltered life, as for 74 years young, it looks marvelous. Illuminated golden dial, fat dial pointer and a golden grille, well, this would look quite "snappy" under the tree or anywhere. No chips, cracks or hairline faults and it is almost shiny enough to use to shave. All the capacitors have been replaced with modern types, out of tolerance resistors replaced, tubes checked and replaced where needed, internal loop antenna and a new fused polarized power cord installed, and it plays very nicely on AM band. 10-1/2"W x 7-7/8"H x 5-3/4"D.
