I got four radios today at $18.75 each (package deal) - two Philco, two others.

The Philco 38-10 is a large table radio. I guess I can try to patch the veneer, or wrap another layer on top. Suggestions would be appreciated.

The entire exterior of the Philco PT-3 (a model not in Ron's book) is photofinish, so I'll either put the chassis into a spare 42-321 cabinet I have, or paint the thing. The chassis looked familiar, and it is about the same as the 42-321, except it does not have an RF stage.
