My old BW sets
Here's my limited collection of old BW sets. See my post in color sets for explanation for lack of pics.
1. Stewart Warner 12" round. Made in 1949. I can get a picture, but I also got this set prior to learning that recapping is a good thing. Once recapped, this set will look really nice. The strips in the tuner are not all there, but I still can get it to work on cable. This one is a tabletop.
2. Zenith 21" made about 1958. Here's a good worker. Nothing special about this VHF only metal tabletop. A set similat to it is pictured in the AS THE WORLD TURNS book published in 1996. The child pictured would eventually become one of ATWT's executive producers. I'll eventually scan the photo and picture of the set. This one will eventually get a full recap, but it works after replacing some caps in the vertical and correcting other "repairs" done before I had the set.
I am always looking for old sets, but I'm not sure when "primetime at curbside" here is.
