Please help me identify a Philco Console Radio that I inhereted after my grandmother passed away.  As far as anyone in the family can tell me, the radio has always been in the basement of her house.  I found a marking on radio component "31-1970R" so I am assuming it was built in 1931.  I have not been able to find any info on this model online yet. 

Any help is much appreciated!  Thanks!
