Man, those cabs look nice. They used a premium veneer with no finish applied. Looked magnificent when new. You usually don't find 1.5 in excellent condition and better still without holes bored into them from the stupid dog-ear stands many of them got. The 1.5 is a beautiful speaker with pleasing rounded features. Much nicer than most comparable boxy floor speakers in that era. The 1.5 had elegance.
Mine look nearly that good but have some sun bleaching in the veneer from a period of idiocy/convenience when they were on a high ledge beside unmasked windows. No scratches or gouges, though. I've never tried to treat the finish and I expect they would clean up nicely without a lot of effort. The grill cloth is in the same protected shape. I've always been very careful handling them. Proud to say I bought them new as a kid with a new decent paying job and cash burning a hole in my pocket. One of the best purchases I made as an ignorant, cocky kid and started a long time love and appreciation for the brand.
They have the nice brass Infinity badges that came on the 2.5, and 4.5. The 1.5 was their little brother. (Those were the days.)
