The great little '30 Philco "Baby Grand" consolette

[Titan1a]

Not quite a baby grand. More like a consolette. Very stylish! I like my 37-665B Philco. Playing now courtesy of Walter Beers.

Actually in 1930 only Philco called both the 20 cathedral and the 20 consolette the "Baby Grand". It's a simple pleasing design that has nice details, especially the birds-eye maple veneer in front.
By the way the 37-665B is a nice set too. You just got to love '30's Philco radios!

That's a real early model, using 71A's in the output stage.

Yes. It sounds something like my '28 Radiola 60. Good, but basically "tinny" sounding.
