The person that I purchased my CT-100 (B8002601) from, got it in 1970 from the Family of Bud Lynch, former announcer for the Detroit Redwings. It was his belief that Bud purchased the set new as it was in the Lynch house ever since he could remember and he was friends of the Lynch family since childhood.
It is, of course, also possible that the set was a gift to Mr. Lynch. Either way, he was the first caretaker.
