Yes, Philco of Brazil was owned too by Ford. After Ford lost interest in the TV manufacturing business, the brazilian Philco plant was sold to a group, than to another, until finally it was bought by one of the biggest financial institutions here. They maintain the factory producing TVs and other electronic gear, and the products are still sold under the Philco brand.

You won't believe, but since I got that flyback I went into a lot of financial trouble, so I hadn't been able to perform the restoration that my beautiful Philco 56 deserves.
