Copio textualmente:

Philco was formed in 1892 as the Helios Electric Co. It mostly manufactured batteries and power supplies, becoming the Philadelphia Battery Storage Co. in 1906. It successfully branched out into radio manufacturing in 1927, quickly becoming one of the "big three" radio manufacturers along with The Radio Corporation of America (RCA) in New Jersey, and Zenith Corporation, which was based in Chicago. Philco's popular Baby Grand line of radios were among the ornate "cathedral" or "bee-hive" wooden radios that the reader may have admired in old or nostalgic movies. Despite the depression that followed the twenties, radio sales actually improved as people sought an escape from their surroundings.

Philco began researching electronic television along with RCA in the early thirties. For a few years they financed the experiments of Philo T. Farnsworth, the first person to develop a working electronic television apparatus (back in 1927). By 1937, Philco was demonstrating an experimental 441-line television system which utilized a 12" mirror-in-lid television receiver. This ornate but bulky receiver was designed to rival RCA's best effort, the 12" RR-359B.

Philco became a popular television manufacturer during the post-War television boom, which lasted from about 1948 to 1955. Beginning with attractive televisions like the 48-1000 designed by Emil Harman, Philco marketed a wide selection of sizes and shapes of televisions. These sets incorporated many technical advances in picture tubes, transistors, set portability, and cabinet design.

What happened to Philco?

As Predictas were black and white, the combination of colour television becoming more popular (and less expensive) and internal/external problems with the sets, led to their demise. The worst problem that had plagued the 21" Predictas was poor picture tube performance, and this significantly damaged Philco's reputation for reliability. Some remaining sets were sold in bulk to hotel chains. Sadly, in 1962, the Philco company, which had been a significant force in North American communications for over 40 years, went bankrupt. Its remaining assets were purchased by the Ford motor company. (Si con razón había un misil de Ford Aerospace el Sidewinder AIM9) que era Philco/Ford AIM-9)

Por cierto laprimera TV que yo receurdo es una Philco comode 25" de lso años 70's a color, de esas de mueble pero hasta eso bastante vanguardista...
