Differerence in schematics after July, 1937 (above Serial No. 4032103). 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.
