I think that picture shows off your set rather well; it's amazing what a slight amount of touching up will do to improve the picture on these older sets (yours was made 36 years ago, the year before I graduated high school). At first I was wondering how you were getting Hawaii 5-O without a converter box (I don't know if any of Detroit's UHF stations carry old reruns anymore--I know the ones here near Cleveland don't and haven't since they became network affiliates--channel 43 is MyTV and channel 55 is The CW--some years ago, so about the only way one can get old reruns back to about the '60s nowadays is on DVD), then I zoomed in on the pic and saw that the image was the setup menu for the Season 5 DVD of the program.
