Thanks for the heads up, I'm thinking of going after it.

Very cool console! I dig the hideaway look. Man consoles of yesteryear really had flare! That one's a peach too! Go get 'er Mark! That missing leg shouldn't be too awful hard for a woodsmith to remake. Not sure about the cost factor.

Pretty sure I can make the leg myself:thmbsp: That should help keep the cost down:yes:

Hiding the screen when not in use was the original "wife acceptance factor" in cabinet design. Very few were done with flip-ups however, I suspect because of the impossibility of putting any items on the top. Zenith once produced a rear projo with a motorized rising screen under a flip-open top, and I wonder how many people regretted getting one of those just because they coudn't use the space on top.

Any way, it's a unique item, and I hope you get it.

Did ya get it ? It went higher than I expected!

Nope, wasn't me. I wanted it though......maybe the next one that pops up.

That is a very cool set. Does anybody else here have one? I have only seen that in a brochure and ad.

Ah ha... get it?... "next one that pops up"... that's a pretty good one :)

looks like another one has "popped up". Not too far from me--and I COULD possibly go and get it for someone on a weekend--if it is needed.

I guess they are more common than I thought. This one is very nice. I bet it was a very popular set when new.

that second set listed is in louisville,ky only 20 minutes from me. if one of you guys wants it that is far away I would gladly pick it up and store it for you for just the gas to go get it until you can make the trip to pick it up.
