Need help identifying 1950s B&W

Hi All!

A friend & customer is trying to identify this television. She's also looking to buy one--possibly.

If you can tell the make & Model, we'd appreciate it...if you have one for sale, please PM me with a photo.

Thanks! Harry Poster

PS--she mentioned that some of the TV knobs in the photo might have been "added" by the owner!

Looks more like a mid to late 60s rectangular color based on the number of knobs, having UHF and general styling.

Could be even later, as the pictures are definitely from later (receding multiple images had to come from a video camera pointed at the set). Could be a console with legs removed.

Tough one. The white cabinet was rare till the 70's. Also looks
like the speaker grill is torn off.
If I had to guess Philco or maybe Maggy @1970-1976.
I thinks the CRT cup is the clue, can you zoom in on it ?

More pix

Thanks for all the help..

The photos supplied are terrible. And, she said the original owners could have sprayed it white, and added the 'extra knobs' to give it a more-fun look... go figure

It does look Philco. And if that's a badge at the bottom of the speaker grille it looks like a half black half silver "Philco Ford" badge.

+1, the badge really reminds it (by the shape of it).
