1968 Sears Silverstone FM-AM Radio Phonograph

by Keninnh » Thu May 13, 2010 3:55 pm

I have a family member who passed and I inherited a bunch of stuff. One of the things I have is a 1968 Sears Silverstone FM-AM Radio Phonograph. It is in great shape and I have all documentation - manual, purchase reciept, even the round cardboard disc that goes on the turntable for instructions.

Is this a $25 yard sale item or should I be keeping it as an antique. Is it worth anything?

Thanks for your help!

Ken

Hi recently bought a 1968 Sears Silvertone Model 8065 Mediterranean. I've been searching everywhere for documentation. If you still have the unit, would it be possible to get a copy of the original manual. I'm tyring to find out as much as I can on my specific model. Thanks. joe

What sort of documentation is needed?
Operating procedures?
The Internet is a marvelous thing, however it's not a good substitute for actually being there.

Likewise I believe from my research on line I also have a (1968) :D Sears Silvertone Record Changer & Radio model 3077 Mediteranian style. The poor thing was sitting outside a house for a few days (lucky no rain storms). I passed by it for two days & finally stopped to check it out on the 3rd day. Looked reasonably in good shape, so loaded into my little Hyundia Wagon. Got home safely, pugged it in & the radio came to life ....I am now working on the record changer player.....got that working. It unfortunately came without any manuals or sales lit. Does anyone have any manuals/sales lit/Sears advertisements...??? Glad I stopped for this Sterio Console, I'm enjoying the challenge of this old technology and how it works; ..facinating. Thanks for listening.
