When I first saw this, I thought it was a President.

I never understood the idea of putting the changer at the floor. :?: .. nothing like standing on your head to play a record ...magnavox was bad enough with the changers at knee level ....hurts my back just thinking about it... :D

Although it is plain enough to be a Fisher cabinet, I'm wondering if it might be some kind of an aftermarket cabinet with Fisher guts in it. The receiver/amp looks like a component system to me.

Looks like an early-ish 800 receiver with the side by side FM and AM dials, in someone's idea of a cabinet, it's not a Fisher cab afaik.
And if it were a Fisher President or Exec console it would have a Miracord or Type A Garrard, not a Model 50 unit.
