UPDATE: I picked up the Stromberg Carlson today. The woman I got the set from said that it used to belong to her grandfather. He bought it new. I think this set cost a bundle when new. She said her grandfather was well to do. Worked as a factory worker in a leather factory. And he invested in Land, and he was very tight with his money.


Cabinet is about an 8 on the 10scale. Should be easy to fix up the dings and scrapes. WHAT A MONSTER! It's a 19AP4 crt set. 2 chassis (main and power supply) Control panel is concealed under a small lift up cover at the top front edge of the set (similar to the way a piano keyboard is covered) The strange part is that some of the knobs on the control panel use a speedometer cable flexible shaft system that extends the knobs on the control panel down to the acutal controls which are located on the chassis in the bottom of the set.

The set is still in the van and I won't be able to get photos until Monday. I will post the pictures on Monday.

There is no tube placement chart pasted inside the cabinet, and the back is missing. So if anyone has an idea of what the model number is, please clue me in. There are some numbers stamped in the chassis but I cant read them until the set is removed from my van on Monday. Perhaps that will give me a clue.


I also picked up the 21" 1956 Admiral color set in Detroit today too.
