That makes since, also I have seen a rectangular Curtis Mathes with the ctc15 clone chassis, wouldn't mind one of those if it wasn't giant. When I was in high school the first tv I restored was a 58 Hoffman I found in a abandoned repair mans shop. The owner have me it, actually there was 2, one was in bad shape but has a good tube and the other was mint but necked, it came together great. I watched it for years with no real problem then sold it. So this color set is kinda neat to me cause I admired Hoffman's history, I actually got to meet the 58s owner and learned how they ended up in South Dakota! Next week I'm giving a 67 packard bell a new home so I guess my hoffman will have a California brother so to speak. Thank you both for the info btw
