looks Philcoish to me by the knobs but that's pretty much a guess. Something doesn't look right on the right of it, like somethings missing.

My first thought was Silvertone but I've been unable to verify that. I could swear I've seen it before somewhere....

Don't recognize the console, but, the first one looks a little like a Crosley.

I will take a look this week. I expect I will pass on the console. The seller thought the console was color, but it's too early to have a rectangular pic-tube.

Table set looks worth picking up...

The blonde console might be a Philco. My 1958 Miss America has similar controls, with thumbwheel adjusters behind the control plate, push power/volume control at the bottom, etc. This could be a year or two older.

My $5 says the one on the right is a Pilot.

The blonde console is a Philco Golden D from 1957.

The dark table top looks like a Teletone or Philharmonic. Don
