I have that same machine in oak. I don't have my catalog handy, but I think
it's an Elite, the fourth one down from the Invincible(the highest). My

It's a Grand. They cost $250 in golden, fumed, early english, or mission oak,
brown mahogany, or mahogany. 24w x 51h x 24d.
It's the lesser of the top three. The others were the Invincible I ($375) and

This is a Sonora Grand (third from top of the line --- first the Supreme,
followed by the Invincible, then the Grand). No, you should not be
