Sorry the picture uploaded sideways for some reason.
Indeed you wheel is dished. It just depends on how the flanges are spaced from the hub center. That old Phil hub of yours definately looks like it requires dishing. I don't really have any experience with Phil hubs, but I've encountered numerous one-sided hubs that are either not dished or have so little dish that its not visible. For instance, check out the flange spacing on Dura Ace hubs. The one-sided version needs about 2mm of dish. http://bike.shimano.com/publish/cont...e-hb_road.html
