When I was searching for info on this set after I got it, 1957. 58, and 59 were the only years I saw mentioned. Your probably right EM about them being around longer. I think I found a Philco online too but dont quote me on that. I "think" there were 2 corner models that RCA made at this time and this is the cheaper one, called Malvern and around $300 new. The other model had solid square type legs. I will attest to the dowel legs strength as Ive had to spin it a couple times.
I was told that it came from the attic of a closed TV repair shop. There was this tv and a very plain Dumont tabletop in the sale. They were the only 2 tv's in the place he said, so I figured it probably wasnt junk. I did not win the Dumont. Theres a tag from 1964 inside when a new CRT was installed with the owners name on it.
What part number diode should I use to replace the seleniums? Im at a loss on that.
