Hello I have a philco model 90 that has no cut out on the bottom. My whole radio bottom contacts the table on which it sits where ass I have seen model 90's that have what looks like legs or feet at the corners. Did they change to the less appealing cabinet later on in production?

:So thats it. The later style model 90 didnt have the feet looking case and the two 45 output tubes one did have this. My 90 is canadian and I thought maybe it was that, but Ive seen both styles and just wondered if a model 70 case was substituted. So now I just have to save enough money to afford an early model 90
