Almost done restoring this. Flipper not a keeper

I think it's a 59 set. Not certain

Nice looking pair. I'm always fascinated by how Magnavox recycled their cabinet designs in that era. Look at the photo of my '56 that appears with my posts, and consider my ca. 1951 model:

The big speaker has a "232" code for Magnavox, coded the 4th week of 1959 production date. The little speaker is also coded as Magnavox production with a 51st week of 1958 production date code. The stereo was likely built in February of 1959. You shouldn't have any problem selling them.....

Magnavox was the king of the hill when it came to audio, and also when it came to sharing components. They brought back cabinets and model nomenclature numerous times. Imperial and Symphony are two models that appeared in several different versions and eras..

This beauty is found in the 1959 Magnavox brochure with a model number of 1-SP209P and the matching speaker is S48. It's called the Berkley.

Come get it, needs a home.

In pretty good shape. Been all thru it. Gonna test and List this weekend if there are no hiccups.

I would love to, Brett, but I think there is a logistic issue. I'm in Michigan and I think you are on the west coast, maybe California and shipping would just be way too expensive. But, thanks for the offer.
