For the price someone gave for that thing when it was new, you'd think they'd GIVE you a remote back then! That way, you could close the top sliding doors covering the controls and just use the remote.

It would be interesting to know what kind of price tag that thing originally had.

So far, all of the 60's CM consoles I've seen were wood and veneer. The two I have are, and the several CM's I went to look at during my last vacation were as well.

It seems that I've only seen two or three listings for CM color chassis during the roundie era. They were probably more focused on a very wide variety of cabinet styles and just depended on RCA clone chassis to go into them. One of the reasons I say this is because my CM set was made in 66, but uses a cTC15 clone... and 15's came out in what... 63?
