  1. I think my uncle may have actually had the one in photo two. HAVE to send this to my brother just to make sure. Philco television sets were really very beautiful in their own way. The cabinets were made out of wood like a fine piece of furniture but later the work would be shipped to places like Taiwan and they would be made of cheaper woods and plastic overlays. Just the way it was.
