I missed this thread the last time it was up. I've never seen this model-very attractive, I think! I'm a big fan of the '38 Philco lineup. One of the first classic radios I ever knew was a 38-4 (I think) that my uncle has. One of these days I need to take a look at it for him; maybe, instead of paying me, he can will the radio to me?
I did finally pick up a 38-3 and it is a real favorite of mine. It has an intermittent somewhere which causes it to jump out of alignment.
