IIRC there are 2-3 of those Automatic consoles known to exist.
Impressive haul. You could have let some of the locals know about those monochrome sets you passed on before telling him to scrap them. If the price is right and and I like a set anything pre-1975 is potential game to me. Olorin67 is local and has been looking for monochrome sets with screens bigger than 21". One man's trash is another ones treasure as they say.....

I saved IMPORTANT AND VALUABLE sets and I attempted to save any B&W roundie. Unfortunately every round monochrome crt I tested was dead. I think the old hoarder pulled any good round crt and re-used them in fixing other sets. So what was left was all dead tubes. As for the run of the mill 21" & 23" Zenith, RCA, Philco, Admiral, etc. B&W sets, they will never be valuable or rare. The factories pumped out millions and millions of these common 21" and 23" B&W sets from the early 50's to the late 60's. And there are still plenty of those kinds of sets out there if that's what you're into. As for me, if it doesn't have a round B&W crt or a 21AXP22 or older tri-color round tube, I am not wasting my time on it. As far as I am concerned, scarce, rare and valuable is what collecting is all about.
