any ideas ...on the Tv that is...
 

I am sure you guys can identify the set...

Judging by the mask and styling it is likely an RCA clone, I'd guess one of the rarer small brands that have long since disappeared.

My eye keeps being drawn left for some reason. ;)

Tough to tell without seeing the instruments.

What is the source of the image?

sadly just a retro 50s website.. no info at all about the image.

Mine too! ;) And dipping into my now-old experience shooting magazine covers in NYC with professional models, something is different here: her hair. Never seen anything like it in a professional shoot. Could this be a foreign (non USA) picture?

NOT my type of hairstyle...and if she is even ALIVE Now..she is in her 70's..or OLDER.. most likely !!

ANY tv set of that type --if found-might have aged a LOT better.. than SHE has by now !!

Same here. The 'do was the first thing I noticed, yuck.

Its that lamp I object to. That silly western-lantern thing was too common in the 1960s

Is the control panel Zenith? (two rows of controls under lower flip down cover?)

NO. It is an RCA CTC-12 thru 16 style mask control panel combo...Trust me. The top row of three knobs is not covered by the control door, only the bottom 4.

I have a Silvertone CTC-15 clone with the same face only the no 2-tone paint around the CRT, and a different tuner trim layout (if you look at the back of the tuner panel on mine you'll see it was stamped to accommodate a variety of tuner configurations). RCAs and clones were the biggest users of that mask, but a few makers that designed their own chassis (like GE) bought those masks too.

I vote Admiral, if only because the UHF-delete cover appears to be identical to the one on mine, plus a similar control panel overall. Not sure which set was higher maintenance, the one on the right or the one on the left :)

It's an Admiral you can always tell by the bezel design on Admirals.

NOT a fan of the hairstyle, either. The REST of her is put together pretty well, though.. I bet the TT had "Dominique" by the Singing Nun on it, tho..

You guys see the hair and not the BOD!?!? Man ad women and pinups had it going on in the 50s and 60s IMHO! Just classier and way more shapely. The hair will fall in a shower!:thmbsp:
