Everytime I find one of these it has cracked veneer on the top curved portion, this one is ok.  I've wanted one for several years.  This was on CL for 3 hours when I saw it stting in my in-laws in Queens tonight.  Kirk, it wasn't far from you in Belmore.  I flew over and paid $60 for it.  Now to get it home.  One thing I noticed on this and all the others I saw was the top gets loose and if you try to pick it up it will come off and crack the curved portion of the veneer.  I'll bring some glue and clamps next time I visit to bring it home. 

It is missing a clarifier and the dial and glass.  I have two parts chassis and a broken cabinet with those parts in tact.
