41-295....not bad at all.
#1

I picked this up today from a lady who's dad had passed away last year.  It was serviced, tested, tubes replaced,  and totally gone through about 2 years ago.  I wasn't expecting too much from it. But it's pretty darned nice. Picks up stations VERY well, and has great tone. The bonus is, the cabinet is in really really nice condition. Except for the potted plant marks on the top, there is not a thing wrong with it.
The dial glass is very clean as well.  It's missing one one the little station ID plastic inserts, but I might fashion something to fill the space. 

It's been in one family since purchased new. It has been sitting in a bedroom since shortly after being serviced, unused for the most part. The volume and tone wheels had some scratchiness, but after a little De-Oxit, all the dials are silent and smooth. The AM reception plays well above it's "pay grade". Nice and stable. Surprising. 

All in all, a pretty nice Philco. Nothing rare or particularly special, except for the condition.  11 tubes. It rocks out pretty well, and it nice to find something that I don't need to get worked on for a change.
