My first find of '09... Philco 50-T1630

16AP4 and 16GP4 are pretty close, I think.

Have been cleaning the cabinet on this old Philco.
The smell that is coming out of this tv is horrible.
The more I clean, the worse it gets.
It stinks of cigarettes and booze.
This set must have spend its life in some old St. Louis tavern.

If I can't get the smell out soon, this tv is going to the burn pile at the farm.

The 16AP4 is a metal cone tube, I picked up a 50 year old NOS one for my RCA but that was something like 8? years ago.

They used to turn up on eBay once in a while.

Don't burn it. I'll take it off your hands.

I agree...never toss something like this as someone else might want it.
