Day 2 of the actual estate sale, and we still haven't gotten to the last of the storage unit! Lots of CRTs in this lot, and I understand there are more. Snapped some more photos before the barn doors were actually opened and the mad rush began. I ran right over to the boxed CRTs, my friends tagged all of the TVs. We ended up missing out on the Teletone wooden cabinet and the Locomotive next to it, which had a huge hole in the side and a damaged top, but which did end up in good hands with another fellow VK member. :)

Pretty incredible! Can't wait to see what Day 3 produces.

Hey Tom, definitely. Right now there are so many sets in my possession which I have not cataloged yet I'm having trouble even remembering what all is there. I'm going to definitely make some complete sets available, and part out some of the rougher ones. I know there are going to be a handful of 7JP4s after all's said and done. Duplicates will either be combined to make good complete sets or parted out of too far gone, and there are definitely a few of the latter.

WOW! Nice score. If that happened around here, I'd be forced into renting a storage space. Any roundie color sets in the mix?

No color sets at all. I remember asking him about that before he died and he'd said that he got rid of his color TVs years ago.

Ok, I'll see what we end up with. One of them is missing it's cover and might end up as a parts set.

If you have a pic I'll see what I end up getting. Like I mentioned, some of these sets with rotten cabinets or bad tolex will end up as parts units.

Very nice find, Justin!

Wow, what fun. I think I have had dreams like that!

Wow I'm jealous. Great score. Glad to see they will go to a good home instead of the dump.

Don't tell me that they were priced with fire sale prices or I would be green with envy :-)

The 7 inch Ratheon pretty rare.

Did you spot a 7" Raytheon? I didn't.
If the cloth front one with the continuous tuner was there I would've just took that and walked off with a smile!

Awesome score! I'd certainly be interested in a strong 7JP4 for my Admiral 19A11.

Oh yes. That is probably one of the least often seen 7" cloth covered portables. I just noticed in one pic, under the 7" Philco, is what appears to be a 7" Automatic Radio TV. It looks like it may be rough, but that just may be the rarest set there. That one restored can bring a sizable sum. It's about as rare as some pre-wars.
