Wow, a TV made in Pretzel City. I'm sure the huge Philco distributor across town played a role in the demise of Bowers. I do remember as a kid, seeing a Bowers Radio
There were three VHF stations available from Philadelphia and one from Lancaster in 1949. The ad claimed it would be adaptable to UHF (possible) and also C O L O R ?

Since this was made in the very town I started collecting, I should really be on the lookout for one.
