Fantastic Mid Century Canadian Fleetwood Hi Fi Stereo

Gotcha Modern! loves mid century design from north o' the border, and this wonderful stereo reflects some of the neat mid century design from our northern friends.

Manufactured by Fleetwood Corp. in Montreal, this stereo features a Garrard turntable above, and radio/tuner in the lower compartment.  Open the doors, and the unit easily slides out to greet you! 

Two speakers complete the set.

The pieces are made of walnut veneer with neat silver (aluminum?) accents, and all pieces are in excellent vintage condition.  Even the original smoke-grey plastic cover is in excellent shape.

The radio works - as do the speakers - and the turntable is untested (not hooked up).

The stereo is 26" in diameter, and 20" tall. The speakers are 18 1/2" tall and 15 1/2" in diameter.

Would make quite a statement in a mid-century decor - and you could easily modify to accommodate wireless transmission from an iPad.

Sold.  Thanks, Chris @ Chicago!
