My husband and I stumbled upon this turntable when we were getting married and thrifting for all our furniture. To our surprise this beautiful thing worked! However, we don't know anything about it or how to make sure it gets taken care of. We are debating keeping it or selling it to someone who will appreciate it like it should be. Everything works although I think it needs a new needle. Anyone have info on how old this could be, value, etc?
Model # 1p3837
Serial # 4973298
It says Magnavox Astro sonic
Here are some pics if it ever lets me upload

Mid/late 60's upper tier console.
It will require a thorough overhaul if you want to insure its reliability.
They all do after 50 years.

The Internet is a marvelous thing, however it's not a good substitute for actually being there.

Some type of early 70's model. Look at that squared turntable and rectangular 45 adapter, looks like a spin-off of the older W800 series. --BB
