TK41 on ‘The Voice’ set?
 
Saw this last Monday night on ‘The Voice’ finals set broadcast live.

Also a period monochrome or color set from the 50’s.

Monochrome RCA TV console circa 56-59.

The close up of the viewfinder makes me wonder it that is a gutted TK-41 with a newer monitor and camera stuffed inside to give the illusion of opperation.

Yes, monitor doesn't seem to fit exactly. It is a CRT, though, as you can tell from the left to right split line across the middle where two different fields were captured.
Also I'd guess it's quite possible it's only the new monitor that functions and no camera is stuffed inside; but the external appearance is good.

Also notice that the RCA meatball is missing along with any network decals.

That TK-41 refitted with modern camera/viewfinder would have came from History For Hire, they have a few of them https://eyesofageneration.com/teleta...-a-grand-tour/ . Back in 2003 R&B group Outkast used one of those prop TK-41s in their music video "Hey Ya" https://youtu.be/PWgvGjAhvIw?t=194 as well as a TK-60 earlier in the clip, I asked about that clip and was told the cameras were modern camera/viewfinder fitted and came from History For Hire. That TV in the background is a B&W set, not colour, colour TVs back then were round tube.

Thanks for the links - that clears up a lot.
