Thanks for the offer. I have some knobs for this but may need a better dial glass. And, you're right about most of these being in sad shape when found today. There is one sitting in a local flea market right now that don't look much better than this one. It's been there for years with a big several hundred $ price tag. I also have the '46 model regular 78 version, also in sad shape. Maybe I'll get it fixed as well. I believe Philco made a console with the slide in record slot, didn't they?
