Philco 38-14T (1938)
(wood tube table radio)

Philco 38-14T (1938)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

This simple, yet attractive Philco 38-14T mantel radio was recently saved from the landfill by a good friend. I think the stylish wood cabinet with wrap around speaker grille and decorative inlays set it apart from the cheaper, more common Bakelite versions. I completely refinished it with 12 coats of nitrocellulose lacquer. There are two or three minor dings in the cabinet, but certainly nothing objectionable. I gave it a full set of good tubes, with all new capacitors and resistors as necessary. I even stuffed new capacitors in the the chassis mounted electrolytics to maintain originality. Reception is decent on broadcast and passable on shortwave. It has a good sized speaker for this type of radio and the sound is quite good. I have installed an audio cable for your mobile devices. All in all, an awesome little radio that doesn't take up much space and won't break the bank. 12"W x 8"H x 6"D.
