Here's a PHILCO Phonograph Radio Record Player in Wood Case Model # 48-1256.
The wood case is solid but does show signs of wear like scratches/surface nicks/missing paint.
Please view pictures and ask questions! This is sold as is! It is not working and is perfect for someone who would like to restore this beauty!
There is a needle in the arm, and the turntable (manually turned) spins fine with the return arm in working order. This item is being sold "As Is" & "As Described" for Parts / Repair / Restoration Only.

- Finish: Mahogany or Walnut. The "Chicago Daily Tribune" August 17, 1947 contains an ad from Philco for the following models: 1226, 1230FM, 1227FM, 1201, 360 and 1256. It is a typical add for selling out the 1226, 1230FM and 1227FM with a trade in of 30 $. Later Philco will offer the "1948 line" in fact 1947/48. This model is offered as the "Aristocrat Table Model" - in Walnut for $ 124.95 and in Mahagony for $ 129.95 - with no trade allowance.
