I know nothing about these units personally, but they seem to by highly thought of by some collectors. Found this today and thought I'd spread the word.

It was still available this morning. $200.

It’s still posted now, and not marked as sold. That doesn’t always mean much, however.

Quite a changer- it seems superior to the Victor changers of the time. The records don't get handles excessively or need to be loaded into a swinging magazine- you can stack as many as twenty records in it. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTQbziJ_Xj0[/youtube]

That's a beautiful cabinet. Does it look like upper works have been changed out or is it just missing parts?

Possibly missing the foreward part of the tone arm

Panic rope? Was that humor or autocorrect? :lol:

Good score. Maybe you can help me out with some measurements/ sketches/ info so I can repair my legless wonder if you don't mind.
