Looking sharp!

I had that model before, in fact I had just about every Philco made and then sold most of them to Radio Daze in one lot when I got into audio, save my 84B cathedral, and my 89 console. In fact Ron Ramirez, author of the Philco book, has a few of the pieces that I ended up selling. Heck, I even had the model 5 shortwave adapter piece for the Philco 90!

Definitely not the original grillecloth, but you can get excellent repro from as I remember www.grillecloth.com . If you need tips on stretching it, let me know, I've done more than my share, worst was on a Philco 39-116X, had a grille the size of two pillowcases
