That's a great find and being red makes it better. From the looks of the power switch, I'd say it has "instant on". I have a similar white Toshiba 9" from '76 that has instant on.

CRT is likely 370AUB22..One of my favorite sets use this blackstripe tube and was from 1976 as well.
That is a very very good TV set..they are near indestructible and do NOT suffer from the capacitor plague of late 80s early 90s Toshibas. Enjoy the large contrast that that crt is capable of |
Thanks!
When we turned it on to test it, before I picked it up, I couldnt believe how nice it looked ! The contrast and colors are superb ! I dont think it was used much because they said it was in a spare bedroom. Thats the good thing about small sets like this. Most of the time, they were used as spares and didnt get used alot, unlike the bigger 19"-30" sets. I think these sets also came in yellow and white casing. |

Cool, I like Orange sets.
I have it's slightly larger (15") and younger cousin but in White. This one was made in 1978. |
The yellow version is at one of the flea markets; but, at $75, it's probably not going anywhere.

Wow is that clean. I remember them but only white ones.
I think sears sold the same one to. 73 Zeno:smoke: |
I had one of those that I sold recently. Mine was white, and came with the Toshiba swivel stand. ( not sure if that was optional or if they all came with one)

FREE is ALWAYS Good..

Toshiba made VERY GOOD sets then..I have a 9" Sears made by them, that I gave practically NOTHING for offa Ebay several years back... Little guy has a GLORIOUS picture..Slightly yellowed mushroom/toadstool-shaped case, but Who Cares ?!?
