Totally done restoring this 1954 B 1750.  Couldn't have done it without the help of the great people on this website.  This model was originally introduced in 1953 and they came out with the blonde version in 1954.  This model is this particular blonde color seems to be very rare.  We grew up with exact model in NY.  Did a complete recap, alignment, all new phonograph parts, etc -  Works great in all respects.  To hear my father's (now deceased) actual 1940's 78 RPM records play on this thing is beyond words.  Thanks to all that helped, especially with the electronics problems I encountered.
