I'm pretty sure this is a Fisher even though it says Lyon-Healy. I haven't checked but that may be the cabinet maker. It looks nice and if it has tubes, that would be a big plus.

It looks like it's a Fisher Custom Electra VIII hybrid.

Edit; I did a little more research and I don't think it's the 1965 model that I linked to because the tuner is different. Probably a year or two later.

Agree Custom Electra. You can see it on the tuner in the second photo. Mid 60s like '65 or 66.

I deleted my earlier post because it sounded stupid. You guys have identified the stereo so you don't need the picture I posted.

If memory serves, Lyon-Healy was a large music store founded in the Chicago area. They sold pianos, organs, other musical instruments, along with other electronic musical things like higher end stereos. The price seems reasonable for a Fisher, I'm guessing it should sell quickly.

I don't know why I put $75 in the title when the listing says $100. Oldtimers striking again I guess.
