Got My First Pre-War TV Today

Two of them to be exact . Got both of them for the bargain basement price of $21.50. What a bargain .

Hahaha that was unexpected lol, I was expecting the real McCoy, cool to see models of old TVs/cameras getting made, have seen some scaled down model sized RCA TK-11/31 cameras before that look almost like they were real!

I can actually imagine those model prewar TVs making excellent props in a Gumby style claymation film or any stop motion film that has a time setting around the 1940s.

One of the RCA engineers got abducted by a pack of unfriendlies in the jungle around 1939, along with their gear. Their heads and gear were all shrunk in a voodoo ceremony
