On RCA's of this era...If it has the original record changer in it, pull the back off and look on the underneath of the record changer and there will be a date stamped on it.

thanks tony

i tried to find # when i opened it up to lube etc but found none? there are a few # on the cabinet and the amp that lead me to believe its 1962.
i believe the changer is rp211 which came out in 1960(i think?) odd that there were no # on the changer itself? unless they got wiped off somehow?




thanks

Sometimes a manufactured date is stamped on the motor windings paper cover.... check that.
