ODDBALL portable projection TV in boombox!

Other than the Philco Safari, I'd never seen a mini-reflective TV until I found this Quasar boombox on eBay a few weeks ago. It's a 1978 model XP-1239, with AM-FM stereo, cassette, and what I think is a 2" tube mounted vertically like the Safari, and what looks to be a flat mirror with a fresnel lens to magnify. The Safari had a parabolic mirror and no lens, so this is a little different. Anybody seen one?
