Your'e not alone, Carmine. I am nuts about this particular style of console. It has the doors on the front like the cover of a rolltop desk that completely cover the front. When closed, it looks like a piece of furniture. The thrift store is only asking thirty dollars for it so price is not a factor. Are parts like flybacks, yokes, etc. easy enough to come by should I need them? How was the reliability of these sets back in the day? I know it's not a Zenith but I believe Magnavox of the 1960s was somewhat of a premium brand.
