While the cabinet is plain, I think it is a cool roundie. I put a bid on it, so we will see. I wish I had known about this set a couple of weeks ago. I was just in the St. Louis area picking up a Halolight. But it is only about 6.5 to 7 hours away from me, so not too bad.
While I do have one roundie, an RCA ctc-16, it would be neat to get a Philco. Seems those are few and far between.
I agree that it must be a fairly advanced chassis for the time. Wouldn't Ford have owned Philco by '67-'69 time frame? IIRC Ford bought out Philco some time around '63 or '64 but I cannot be sure. I thought Philco went into bankruptcy in '63. I am sure there are those out there who know much more.
