New here,...just joined this evening
Hello from Bluffton,IN. I go by Philco1968. I have yet to start a vintage TV collection,...space kind of prohibits that as I live in a small house. Anyway,...I still find vintage TV sets fascinating,..and radios as well. Brandwise,...I'm a Philco nut. There's just something about a Philco radio or TV that just grabs my attention. I had a "modern" Philco 19" set back in 1985 that I bought brand new,and had a great picture on it. I'd like to find an older vintage Philco set,though,...from late 1950's to late 1960's.

The Philco set you bought, was either a rebadged Sylvania or it's possibly one of the Philips designs and has a Sylvania sourced CRT, which had rather good color quality. Welcome to the forum! A lot of sage wisdom here. |

I love my Philco "tombstone" radios. After 80+ years and gone through hell, this baby has gutz! Looking forward to my '36 116B. My '40 Zenith is still dead. I need to find me a good vacuum tube tech!

Hello! Welcome to the forum!
Newbie here as well. Whenever I’m taking a break from this particular interest, I’m usually found at home, feeding my Pomeranian his favorite dog treats and watching TV with my wife. Such a simple and noble life. Cheers, fellas! Last edited by Peternith; 02-19-2019 at 11:14 AM. |

Get OUT of this accursed hobby NOW, B4 you become too emotionally/financially involved. One old set leads to two, which leads to three, & next thing you know, they'll be staring back at you from EVERY flat spot in yr abode....(Grin) Seriously, Welcome to the MAGNIFICENT madness that is radio/TV collecting !
