In this photo, it was just pulled from a barn, the mice loved it but left the speaker unscathed. I cleaned it out. The phono is not original.

It has both FM bands, old and new as it is from 1947.

I think I have the table model of that set.

Years ago, a man a couple streets over from me had one of these. I think it was one that was handed down through his wife's family. Unfortunately, he "antiqued" the cabinet in some awful color. It's also unfortunate that he plugged it in at some point and let the smoke out. At some point, someone had replaced the original changer with a mid '60's Garrard AT6. I tried to talk him out of it; but, since it belonged to family, he would not let it go. Then, everybody died and who knows where it wound up.
