Good-looking RCA combo on Detroit CL

I don't know if anything works but I here people use them as furniture and fish tanks.
If somebody has a similar Zenith to trade, I'd pick this up for ya.

I'm sure that's a CTC25. I have one that looks very close.

It would look much nicer without the BPC sitting on top. I have a Maggie combo of that era but I don't think you would want to trade. It looks great but the stereo don't work at all.

I generally don't go for PC-board sets, which pretty much limits me to Zenith, Pac-Bells (never seen one in person) and Setchel Carlson (would love one).

However, I might consider a maggie because the stereos are of such good quality. It would come down to cabinet style in such a case. I would prefer a combo with doors that cover the screen.

It has sliding recessed doors over the screen and is in a beautiful French Provincial cabinet with only a few scratches. some pics are on my tv page. I usually don't go for the PC board sets either but this one struck my fancy but is now in my way.

Hmmmm.... I don't HATE that style as many here do, but I don't really have much by the way of furniture to match it, so I'm more interested in a Danish-Mod style.

Sorry if that comes off as picky, but when space is limited, you have to be.

I know what you mean, my space is pretty limited too.
