Push Buttons for 1939 Philco Sets (wine or brown color)

(PBPh39LW)

Philco radios from 1939 used these Push Buttons. Likely used by models 39-25, 39-30, 39-31, 39-25, 39-35, 39-36, 39-40, 108, and possibly others. Probably all Philco sets from 1939 that had the rectangular slide-rule dial.

If you purchase these, you might consider also buying the Philco Corner Chassis Mounts listed below. Usually, the old mounts are squashed and don't hold the chassis up as high as it should be causing the control shafts and buttons to not line up with the holes in the cabinet and bezel.

Dimensions: These are 1-5/8 inches long by 1/2 by 1/2 with a rectangular slot in the bottom 3/16 in. long, by 1/16 wide, by 3/8 deep.

These buttons are for a G. E. G-167, but I'm sure they will fit other radios. They are black in color, have a longitudinal slot in the bottom side which has a hole that passes through the slot at a right angle. I can offer a price break on a full set.

Reproduction Knobs

Knobs for Heathkit Tube Tester IT-17 (KHT17)

The IT-17 uses either one or the other style of this knob. The one pictured on the left has an indent on the top, the one on the right is crowned instead of indented. Check your tester to make sure you purchase the correct style. These are just like the originals. They may fit loosely requiring a tiny bit of glue to hold them in place. All my original ones on my tester were loose.

Replacement "Acorn" knobs for Emerson "Snow White" Radio (KEM-1)

These are knobs for a "Snow White" Radio, model BM-247, DB-247, or Q-236. The knobs are reproductions taken from originals and cast in resin. They are in the shape of cute little acorns and even have the wood grain showing in them as if they were made of wood like the originals. The color is a dark brown, and is set in the resin, not painted on. These are made to be pressed onto the half-round shafts and are a snug fit, so they won't be coming off easily.

$29.95 for the pair

Small Knob for Philco 20 (KPH-1)

RCA "World" knob $19.00

Zenith 800 Series Tombstone Knob (KZ8-1)

These are reproduction knobs for the Zenith tombstone radios with the chrome design over the grill cloth.

Reproduction Rubber Parts

Rubber Feet for Crosley "Dashboard" Radios (FCR)
(Models D-25, and 10-135 through 10-140,11-120 U through 11-125 U, and E-15. Maybe other models too.)

These rubber feet are shaped just like the originals were. If you have cracked, hardened, feet on your Crosley radio, or if the feet are missing, you might want to consider using these. They will protect your furniture, and make your radio look more authentic. Just push the small end into the existing hole and twist. The foot will pop in and stay in. It helps to wet the end so it slips in easier.

4 for $9.00

Philco RF Chassis Isolation/Support Grommets
(PHG-RF)

Here's a part I'll bet you can use. These are silicone isolation grommets for Philco chassis such as the 37-610. This chassis has a separate RF sub-chassis mounted in the center of the main chassis, and it's suspended there by three of these grommets. The grommets are usually hard as rock and crumbling. These grommets are the right size, right hardness, and look aged.

Philco Shadow Meter Mask (PSM)

If you've discovered some nasty black goop on the inside of your radio cabinet that has dripped down over the dial, tuner, and chassis, it's probably all that's left of the original shadow meter mask. This mask goes over the light-box end of the meter. It acts as a bumper against the front of the cabinet and also seals the opening so light goes where it's intended.

Shadow Meter Mask: $6.00

Crosley "Battery Fiver" model 548 Tuner Grommets (TG1Crosley)

These grommets probably fit multiple model numbers from the 1939 era. The tuning capacitor assembly is supported by three of these.

Dimensions: base is 1 x 3/4 in., narrower part is 3/4 x 1/2 in. , slot is 7/16 in. wide

Movie Dial Grommets

$9.50/pair

RCA Chassis Support Grommet (Grca)

Dimensions: 1 x 1/2, 1/2 in. hole

4 RCA Support Grommets
$8.00

RCA Tuner Friction Roller (RCAroller)

Used on model K60, K80, and probably others.

This friction roller presses against the tuning shaft pulley. The friction against the pulley face allows the tuning knob to turn the tuning shaft. These are frequently cracked, hardened, deformed, and the hole stripped out, causing slippage. This new roller is a very tight press-fit. A little glue, and a good tight fit should keep this from slipping for years. Made of hard urethane rubber.

Dimensions: 5/8" wide, 7/16" thick

1 RCA Friction Roller: $8.00

Crosley "Dashboard" Speaker Gasket (GCrosley)

Frequently, the gasket between the speaker and the case is very hard and brittle, and may have pieces missing from it. If you are putting one of these fine radios back into working order, why not replace the gasket with a new, supple, rubber one. Just pull out three retainers, and push this one in place, pop in the old retainers, and your radio will thank you.

Dashboard Gasket: $12

Motorola Television Mask for Models VT-71, etc. (VTmask)

These are the long awaited masks to replace those rock hard or melted masks from years ago. Pictured on the right is an original mask, and on the left is the reproduction. Both masks are made of foam material with a smooth skin surface.

The back side is cupped to fit over the CRT, just like the original. (The mold was made from an original that was still in good condition.)

Click on the picture to see a larger view.

The originals were spray painted with a gray paint around the visible part of the mask. My reproductions are tinted in the manufacturing process to a gray, making it unnecessary to paint them.

Installation note: It may be difficult to get the CRT to seat into the depression on the back of the mask. Try using water, K-Y jelly, or some other lubricant that dries quickly. You don't want to use Vaseline or something else that will stay on the rubber for a long time as the rubber may be adversely affected by it over time.

1 Mask: $38.00

Got a 1937 Philco 610, 620, 630... with a broken AC switch/tone control shaft like the one in the picture? They get broken at the weakest point, the place where the retaining clip sits in the groove cut into the shaft.

New controls and even used controls are nearly nonexistent, but you can have the control repaired.

Pull the switch out and send it to me. I'll disassemble it, make a new shaft for it, rivet the shaft to the wiper, clean the controls, and reassemble it. You'll be good to go in no time. Actually, in about a week. Cost is $25 which includes shipping from me back to you. Send me an e-mail before you send the control to me and we'll get it started. (1940 and 1950 Philco's may also have the same size shafts.)
