1950's Motorola with the box on eBay
 
These sets always look funny to me, like someone cut a floor model in half and stuck a itty bitty stand under it.

I rather like the look of this old girl. But its hard to believe she still has the original box with her, that has to be beyond rare.

Second time up. This time they kept the price the same but threw in the chair. It is kinda cool but not at that price.

Well as the saying goes.."its only worth what someone is willing to pay for it". I have to admit, if that was local I would seriously consider buying it just because it looks so darn cool!

This set is in my neck of the woods. The listing on Craig's List is very odd, the first line is "First, I'm a girl so I don't know much about electronics." I think it's over priced. The original box is rare, but I'm not sure it adds any value.

We could never use a stand like that here in earthquake country. :)

Also looks like a bit of a hazard if there are toddlers around. Kid might be injured if he manages to tip the thing over on top of himself.

Sure is a nice looking design though.
