Philco Safari scored

I've seen a few of these over the years but they either been out of my price range, poor condition or both. I finally got as lucky a few days ago (I think) and snagged this beauty with a $79.99 BIN

It just arrived this afternoon and I snapped a few photos. Here are some of those plus a few from the auction listing.

I haven't looked inside or tried to power it up yet.

All knobs are present and the leather is in decent condition.



I only see a few issues so far.

One side of the handle has broken loose.

The battery compartment has some corrosion. I imagine that's a common issue.


The visor won't stay up on it's own. I suspect something is missing


Fingers crossed the CRT is good. I imagine replacement 2EP4s are nearly impossible to find.
