Hello gang!

I just acquired a Philco P1893 credenza style cabinet. I am ecstatic to have it! However, I cannot find any information on this specific model. I have read through the abundance of information on this website and learned quite a bit—like it appears to be made in 1966–but it seems the focus here is on the older radios. I believe mine may need a new idler wheel or belt on the turntable? So I would love to know anything anyone can offer about my new cabinet. Here are some pictures of her: https://imgur.com/a/5FrrWHN
Cheers!

The mechanics of the record player looks like the VOM (Voice of Music).
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
