N.B.C. studio cameras in New York City (circa 1952)
I was watching this promo film earlier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dppZxBnNOl0 (the title sayes wrong 1942; since United Nations Bulding was complete in October of 1952 and it seems to be summer, I can't be eariler then 1953).
At 9:42 I spotted some studio cameras - 30 Rockefeller Center. For the ones curios, before the cameras, there are images with the radio side.

No, not a TK10, which was an image orthicon camera. The one you can see completely with the NBC logo is an earlier and much less sensitive iconoscope camera, with no viewfinder. Note the banks of floodlights. Not sure what is partially visible on the extreme left.

There was an old-time electronics store near here, that had been around since the invention of radio, that had an iconoscope on display over the counter along with some other old tubes. Believe it was NOS. Then one day I went in and it was gone. The other tubes were still there.
Not sure what happened to it. Maybe it sold on Ebay. I remember buying some caps from there one time. They looked old (60's) and when I checked them, read 0 uf. That place eventually went out of business as technology moved forward.
