I forgot to mention that my father worked for JL Hudsons in both Detroit, and, eventually, the new JL Hudons at Eastland shopping center. He got the family tv as a Christmas present in 1949 at an employee discount. If you are interested in An unfinished Very long post I did in Antique Radio Forums some years ago with pictures. I have had a lot of health issues, so, set, and, interesting saga on the one I have Should make interesting reading. I also have started a posting on an RCA Victor 8TR29 in antique television section in my forum,Tube Radio and, appliances the friendliest forum in the whole world. I have two posts. One on the original junker I picked up years ago with many pictures. The other a recently started one wi5th a couple of starting pictures, not of my set, yet, that Tim kindly got for me. I decided to finish that one. Someone had done a lot of work on it.
