Vintage Philco
Hi Carl,
I also welcome you to the forum.
You've come to the right place for help. As Eric said a model # would be a good start. I would suggest that you resist the urge to plug it in "to see what happens." Although you may have already tried this step. It could be as simple as a tube replacement. But sets this old generally need new capacitors or other components. Some such as flybacks or picture tubes are getting scarce. Even in L.A. where I also live, it is difficult to locate techs who will still work on vintage sets. If the cabinet is in good original condition and the chassis had regular service over its life it might be easily restored and be very collectable. Keep it dry and covered.
