Philco 118MX scored
#7

Speaking of tobacco smell, that reminds me. I need to take the chassis out of that DeForest Crosley, Brahms (yes that is the model) and give it a trisodium phosphate wash once the weather gets hot enough. I bought that set last year and even a year later that chassis still smells like an ashtray, and the steel looks nicotine stained too. The set must have had a chain smoker sitting next to it for a good part of it's life.
I like those M series cabinet Philco models, not as fancy as a highboy perhaps but very clean looking. Does anyone know if they produced any Canadian models with these types of cabinets? I know that there was a Canadian version of a 112 with the Norman Bell Geddes modern/Chinese rival cabinet.
Regards
Arran
