This Philips unit should be the cheap Philips answer to the Philco Peoples Set at those times. There is no chassis which is quite a challenge for a repair. Theatrette is a (later) nickname of the collectors. There is also a model V5A with the same cabinet but no tone control. The Philips V7A features a tone control switch on the left-hand side and both have at the right-hand side the wave-range switch.
