I believe it is a model RP-21, dated somewhere around 1957. This was the model my parents had for almost 30 years, and I'd love to try and find one if I can.

Can anyone help with possibly a Sams photo?

We may have an actual example of that model but will definitely have the sams...will try to get a scan or photos.

If you actually have this thing, I will buy it, name your price.

I'm sorry, cannot find RP-21 in sams index...can find RP-211 but it is a turntable only.

This is a turntable only, in a console form. It was a big blonde thing with a spooky lookin' eye like thing over a big gold V in the upper right corner. Freaked me right out as a kid! :)

The sams I found for the rp-211 is only for the record changer itself, this does not include anything else such as the cabinet or amp...this sams is from around 1960, I can scan it if you'd like.

Probably a couple of years too late, but something like this (http://www.geocities.com/drv_48072/DSCN0195.JPG)?

That's very close, but the one my parents had didn't have the radio, and the controls were on the right hand side.

Same spooky eye though......man would I love it back
