To me, one of the best things about owning an antique Philco radio is sitting in a totally dark room at night, taking in the beauty of the dial as it illuminates the room. It has a mesmerizing quality! So I decided to start a thread for folks to show off their treasures... in the dark. Turn off the lights some evening and take a close up pic of the dial on your favorite set (keeping in mind the photo size limit here).
This photo of my 1936 model 630 is actually the lock screen on my Samsung Galaxy S III cell phone!
Here's my 47-1230 with illuminated phono compartment:
46-1201:
39-40:
48-1253:
OK, you get the idea. This could become a mini museum of glowing Philcos!
