There are these options when dealing with a vintage speaker:
1. Speaker OK to continue on
2. Speaker needs some work (repair cone...)
3. Speaker needs a re-cone
a. Re-cone speaker
b. Replace speaker

The speaker in this radio fell between #2 and #3. It has a warped cone causing the voice coil to rub on the armature. I decided, because this speaker is a fairly common size of 6" x 9" to go ahead and replace it. I found an NOS Radio shack speaker on Ebay that had one little tear in the cone that was easily repaired.
