Default Any ideas on how old this is?

It looks like a very old Hi-Fi unit from Germany. My wife got it from her grandmother. The name is Telefunken. Has anyone ever seen this unit?

Old ? That radio's just as young as I am. Your wife must have a very young grandmother

I think she purchased it during a trip to Germany and was already older. I'm only four years younger than it if that makes you feel better. Now that I think about it, it isn't very old.
