Sears Roundie Color Combo on eBay

[jstout66]

Came across this on eBay. If I was close or had the room! I always loved that style of turntable Sears used. It's got a "floating" stylus. Don't know who made them for Sears. Anyway.. here's the link, maybe someone smarter than me can post pix http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MEWA:IT

If the TT is original, it came from the late 60's. But 50's? No way.

I would guess 1962-66? Didn't Tim have a set with a similar control panel? Here's the pic.

the turntable is original. I've seen em on Sears Stereo's of that vintage. I've been on the hunt for one of those turntables but they don't come up very often. This seller has no clue as to age. I don't even think it's listed in the right catagory. I stumbled across it when I typed in "console tv" in the eBay search. Usually I only look in the collectible televisions part and I don't think it's there. This one doesn't look beat up. Do we have any AK'ers in that area? Would be kind of nice for someone to get and would be differant from all the Zenith RCA stuff out there.

Electronically, mine is identical. I think the turntable may have been from VM. The control panel matches perfectly.

Most of Sears better turntables including the ones with the floating
cartridge were made my Crescent.
