Philco 49-900 Black Version
#2

Philco did produce a mottled brown (walnut) version in 1949, contrary to what I wrote in the Philcoradio.com Gallery.

http://www.philcoradio.com/gallery/1949.htm#n

Some of the brown/walnut models are very dark, close to Ebony but not quite so.

I'll have to correct that...don't know when because, frankly, I have other priorities right now and the website isn't one of them.

The "E" would indicate Ebony, not Walnut. "I" indicates Ivory. I am not aware of the walnut version having a suffix letter but I will look into this, this weekend.

I would like to add an ebony 49-900 to my collection, but most of the ones I see on eBay end up going for much more than I care to spend on one of these sets.
