Old Penncrest stereo console, who made it and should i get it?

The Penncrest name started being used by Penney's in early 1963. Down in my area, there was a tube stereo that had a jPc logo on it. I know it's late '50's or early '60's, but some youngster who isn't even 30 yet said "It's not Penney's, it would say Penncrest on it if it was. They did offer electronics before using the Penncrest line name.
