- Notes
-
The same Crosley console was sold as "Crosley Fiver DeLuxe Console" without the "Safety-Tune" or "Quiktune Dial" or as "Fiver Console" without the term DeLuxe" but additional push-button tuning for five stations as "Quiktune dial" - as also has the "Chairside Fiver" in black wrinkle, brown wrinkle and walnut.
See: the same Crosley chassis was used for models 517 Fiver deLuxe Comact (late), Fiver DeLuxe Table model (upright), Fiver Compact with Bakelite louver front and the Fiver DeLuxe Console. Not to confuse with the Fiver Console which has a slightly different chassis with push buttons like the different cabinets: "Chairside Fiver" in black wrinkle, brown wrinkle and walnut and the other models with the same "Quiktune Dial" like the table model for $24.
