I just got home with this minty 84B. A little four tube Cathedral. The cloth is a bit sunny, but the cord has been replaced and the seller had been playing it. Maybe I got lucky with a re-capped set. For $25 I'm happy either way.

I got something ubercute that complements this little cathedral. Fumble fingers here dropped the camera and broke it. I'm picking up a cheap replacement on CL tomorrow so if I'm not ripped off, I'll post a photo then. Assuming I can figure out how to operate a Sony cam.

It looks solid and complete but I think that someone stripped the cabinet as the front panel is all blond now.

Yes, it sure looks too new and one tone to be original.
