It looks fantastic.. Odd there was no power switch fitted originally. My parents had an early 50''s bakelite Philco which had a cable hanger switch as well, but for reason of the one inside the tone control being iffy 
. Have you used the original switch that was in the mains lead or a safe modern replacement?.. looked all original to me.
I'm still finding it hard to believe it's the same set.. except the knock on the back top corner gives it away. Must be worth a few bob now.. very rare beast indeed. Great restore.
