Philco on TCM this morning!
#1

Just happened to flip on the TV this morning and TCM was on. As I did, I caught a glimpse of what appeared to be Philco console in the old b/w movie that was on! Well this got my attention, so I watched more closely. It was shown several times in the scene, and one of the female stars actually goes over to it and turns it on. With the help of the fabulous Philco Gallery, I was able to identify it as being a 1936 model 680X! Consulting the TCM Now Playing magazine, I found the movie is titled "The Case of the Velvet Claws" (1936), starring such legendary names as Warren William, Claire Dodd, and Winifred Shaw. It's still on as I type this.
