It's nice to see that the plastic bezel/grille combo is still in good shape, maybe they used a better mixture of Tenite on those sets then they did on the portables? As for Philcos coming out of the woodwork maybe you should investigate whether there was a local distributor nearby? Where I am both Philco and C.G.E had a regional distributor so there are lots of both around here. Even if there wasn't Philco was the largest manufacturer, by far, during the 1930s, that may have slipped a little by the early 40s but they were still building millions of radios every year, and what's more they were decently built so there are still lots that survived.
