Hello, Would love to know more about this unit. Booklet that came with it suggests it was made in Don Mills, Ontario but doesn't say when. AM-FM radio and turntable work perfectly. Sound is pretty amazing for this older unit. Any idea about age and values would be appreciated.

Take a better pic of that changer, if you would.  . . . maybe consider removing the back and taking pics of the inside.
It looks like a fairly well-made unit, despite Philco's poor reputation for consoles after about the mid-60s.
