Thanks for posting the link. I bought it. Family had one exactly like this when I was 9. Same color too and with UHF. Been looking for this exact set a long time. I draged it to grade school so my 3rd grade class could watch the Milwaukee Braves win the 1957 world series. This set has a lot of memories for me. I remember watching 3 Stooges and Shirley Temple movies on it and also Saturday night horor movies with Dr. Cadaverino. I sure hope it gets here in one piece.

You see a lot of the GE/Hotpoint sets of this era, but this Philco is not seen very often.
