Added a Seventeener page to my Site

I was given a nice Philco Seventeener, it arrived today and it turned out to be the remote "New Matic" model.
Anyone have the "remote" for this?

Could it be similar to those squeeze bulbs used with photo equipment? The manufacturer might have used that as it would be an "off the shelf" item cheaper than something custom designed and made.

Yep, it's a squeeze bulb thingy, I've seen them on eBay before, I just can't remember if it was branded Philco or if it was generic. I'll probably wind up getting something generic to use until the real deal comes along, that is if I get the set running first of course!
