Normally I don't go for postwar consoles, but this weekend I found a deal on a really nice 49-1603 that was too good to pass up. Plus, I think the cabinet is kind of interesting.

The chassis is just a 6-tube, so it shouldn't be any problem. I'm less sure of the phono. Were they putting multi-speed phonos in consoles in '49? Does anyone have a manual for this set or one that is similar?

Thanks,

Tom
