Major Magnavox and Motorola score today

I aquired 3 "new" sets free today. One immaculate Magnavox 21" console, one Magnavox 21" table set (should have legs) and one 17" Motorola table set.

I'm REALLY proud of the Magnavox console, what do you guys think? I havent plugged it in, cleaned it, or done anything else to it. I can tell this set was used constantly, as all of the tubes, inluding the picture tube. The picture tube was replaced in January of 1970 with a dumont tube *woo hoo, its new!* I'm getting a variac very soon, and wondered what the process is for "bringing up" a set after its been retired for about 20 years? I also wondered what the steps are to check the set if its ready to even be turned on for a diagnosis

Here are some pics of the three sets...
Tell me what you guys think!

(ps, that white sopt on the front of the magnavox set doesnt exist, i dont know why the camera chose to slip up )
