Philco 1942 Console Knob (Brown)

The Correct Knob for Your 1942 Philco Console or Table Radio

Philco's 1942 lineup was the last full model year before wartime production restrictions changed everything — and these sets are among the most collected Philcos for exactly that reason. The brown mottled knobs on these radios have a distinctive look that's immediately recognizable to collectors, and finding originals in good condition is increasingly difficult. This reproduction knob is molded to match the original brown mottled finish and profile, sized correctly for the 1942 Philco shaft specification.

Important: Shaft Compatibility Note

The 1942 Philco models use a shaft with a half-diameter flat reduction — a different specification from the slight flat used on earlier Philco models. This knob is designed for the 1942 shaft and will not fit earlier models correctly. Verify your model year before ordering.

Fits models: Most 1942 Philco console and table models with model numbers beginning with "42-"
