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.

That's how I got mine. The previous owner picked it up by the top and just about pulled it off. The front is cracked and you could probably lift it off with out too much effort. It was good to get at the time but I don't see getting to it soon. Good luck with yours.

Thanks Henry, the curved veneer is very hard to repair. I will use my other one as a parts set to fix this one.
