Well, I'm cheating just a little 'cause this is a 25MC30 chassis. This must have been the cheapest console they had, with a metal cabinet-they didn't even bother with woodgrain, just brown paint with a sort of mottled finish. A few years back I answered an ad for "old tv's for sale" and while there were a few nice things in that pile this was the crown jewel. The most serious problem was a bad power switch-often I've wondered if that was the only reason it was taken out of service. Looked like it had been sitting since the 60s or early 70s, with a very clean chassis. Only other problem was getting the purity right-took a stack of refrigerator magnets strategically placed to remedy. Darn, I wish I could get a good picture of both the screen & the cabinet!
