Not a bad looking set. I tried finding the Sams folder but nothing is making sense. Possibly this is it? https://www.samswebsite.com/en/photo...dex/model/1680

Sams 502-1 is November 1960.

That doesn't even vaguely look like it.
I doubt that's the right schematic.
Interesting looking set.

Mid 60's looking, nothing all that special but it would be cool to have five of them all lined up.

What I do with some of my old floor model radios is I put out in the shed with a large plastic bag over them till I can get to working on them. The bags I use are for furniture, large enough to fit a easy chair. Would fit a tv fine or if it's too small you could use one for a loveseat. I do this just to protect the set from water damage. I'm in the furniture biz.

I don't think that's as old as 1960. Probably one of those mid 60s that were really thin as far as depth as compared to most consoles both before and after this period. Great space savers for a motel..

23" tube with a 5U4 puts it in a pretty narrow time frame ca. 1961.

Looks to be in pretty nice condition. I imagine the others are in similar condition. You could almost make a retro TV store! Have all 5 playing the store window.
