Captainmoody, I actually kind of like it... Especially the speaker grille cloth. Now I'm not actually saying I'd want to display it in MY living room, but I do think it's pretty neat-o.
As far as "never seeing another like it", I missed one almost exactly like it, in perfect working condition, at a Sun City, AZ estate sale. ($10!) Also, my aunt (who worked at Detrola) had one until the late 80s in her French Provincial living room. I found the generic-cube-of-Korean-plastic that replaced it to be far more offensive.
I think that French style was a Magnavox specialty, at least into the 70s. I've never seen another brand in this style.
