Thanks for the feedback! Nice to see I'm not the only one who thought this set looked pretty nice.
Actually, you could well be right about that last point, since it turned out I was the only bidder-- so who knows what would have happened.
By the way, forgot to mention-- there was *one* thing I did to this set before those photos were taken, and that was remove the front safety glass to clean the glass and CRT face. When I first got this thing home (which was kind of an adventure in itself), I noticed that in certain lighting, you could see sort of 'ghosted' shapes/formations on the CRT face; it almost looked like phosphor burn-in, but I figured it was probably just some accumulated dust on the CRT. Sure enough, it was-- in fact, I couldn't *believe* just how much dirt there was on the CRT face. For the most part, it was so evenly spread out that it didn't actually look all that dirty before. Amazing what a difference that can make!
