Old photos of TV's

[Randy Bassham]

That is a 16 inch Philco, I can't tell from the picture if it's a table model or console. Looks similar to the one my Aunt bought around 1951 or so, and was the first TV I remember seeing. My Uncle was in the Navy and my Aunt lived with my Grandmother and she had the set there. Dad fixed it for her a few times but somewhere around 1959 she replaced it with a 21" RCA console. The Philco stayed at my Grandmothers house until she passed away in 1983. When my Aunts and Uncles were cleaning out the house my Aunt gave me the set, I've still got it in and intend to get around to restoring it hopefully soon.
