There are millions of AA5s out there, many have very cool looking deco cabinets...One can go to 100 radio/TV swap meets and find 5000 deco AA5s, but not one TM-21...I appreciate looks the same as I do engineering, but categorical scarcity (and engineering interest) puts some things in other leagues.
Ah! Okay. Knowledge is power. I had no idea it was something that rare. Very interesting piece. I'm a big TV history buff and can sure appreciate that piece.

Thanks MadMan for your comment.
