I purchased this "peoples set" at a house clearance auction a while ago and this weather has encouraged me to investigate it in detail. The chassis appears to be a 444 chassis, although there is no ID plate. However it is fixed to the case with only two (original?) screws, and they don't sit in between the two lower ribs, even though there are 4 holes. There are tell-tale indications that the 4 empty holes have been used. A web search reveals that the bottom ribs are located further in than those of a 444 case, and looks like the case of a 333. Is it likely that this is just Philco using up 333 cases, or have I got a home-made hybrid?
