Welcome to the Phabulous Philco Phorum!

I can tell you it's Voice of Music record changer has a tonearm identical with that on the VM changer in a Zenith console my family bought in 1968. But ours had a short-spindled version, so I suspect yours is a few years older, before VM went to that shorter spindle.

If you contact Gary Stork at https://www.thevoiceofmusic.com/ , 248-478-0990, he may be able to zero-in on exactly when that changer was manufactured.

There are no tags? they are glued or stapled inside the cabinet. It is a mid 60's to 70's wall hanging unit. What does it say under "Philco" Solid state?

It has to be older than the mid-60s with that tall spindle.   Icon_evil

1964. Some appear to show an RCA 45 changer.
