That is UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!

BTW, I discovered that the "dag" coating on the crt shroud on both the 21ct55 and the CTC4 is not dag at all. It is silver plating and in some cases it will oxidize to the point where it is totaly black.

You can clean it to like new condition with Tarn-x liquid tarnish remover that you can by at the hardware store. I stinks real bad so do it outside on a plastic tarp and have your garden hose to rinse off the Tarn-x. I used a soft sponge and it took about 3 applications to go from solid black to the silver gray color you see on crt shroud in the photo of this newly discovered Director set.

That has to be the cleanest ctc4 chassis I have ever seen. That little old lady must have loved that set to have kept it so long and cared for it so well. Thank you little old lady! Please be sure you do something nice for her in return and let her know that her cherrished set is alive and well and that it will be cared for long into the future.
