Local guy is clearing out his Mother's house and has a Steelman console stereo. Says it's model 604 with serial number 69594, and thinks it's from 1959. Has a record player, and he says it's should have a radio, but he can't find the controls? So, I assume it either does not have a radio, or the controls are somehow hidden. Here's the picture from CL:
Can anyone shed light on this unit? Is this worth picking up? At this point he is giving it away to get it out of the house.
He also has a Curtis Mathes console he says is from 1954 with a model number 4519 that he might be parting with unless his son can move it out. No picture, but this pic shows part of the back of both consoles behind the sofa:
Can't seem to find anything about either of these models on the web, so any help would be great! Don't want to bring home a boat anchor, but I'd be interested if either one of these is considered a quality stereo.
