Closer to 1959 isn't it? Zenith

I have a tuner from one of these in my garage.

Is 1959, which is not close to 1951. According to this guy what would a porthole Zenith go back to, the thirties?

Don't they?? :D :D

Probably can't blame the average person for not knowing the year (but you could blame them for stating the wrong information so decisively!)

AND if I had a set that was "working perfectly", I think I'd choose to include a photo of it actually running!?! :confused:

I was thinking the same thing Dave

Notice how these antique TV sellers NEVER make the set NEWER, they always make it OLDER! This can't be an accident, because when it's an LCD monitor or a digital camera they're trying to unload, it's always NEWER than what the model number shows. The excuse is usually "it was bought as new old stock 3 days ago from an overstock surplus house". And how about all those cars that have 245,000 miles on the odometer, but "OH, Don't worry, it's really only 59K miles... This car was always towed behind an RV so those aren't really miles"

PHOOEY on all of them! I need some cash, so I am selling 500 acre-feet of fresh drinking water that is presently in the Pacific Ocean. Just needs a little filtering!
