The Philco 1201 is a table radiogram with 5-valve dual-wave radio that Philco NZ introduced in late 1947. Based on the Philco USA model 46-1201 which, unusually for a US model, ran for 2 years rather than the usual one - although it had a raft of different changes in that two year period. The only real visual difference between the US and NZ model was the dial / control area.
The player mechanism is unusual, records are fed in through the front drawer and the player starts (and stops) automatically - quite an innovation for its time.
