Sandy,
I did this query only in the memory of my sainted grandmother Gertrude who was given the same set for Christmas that year by my dad and siblings.
I spent many hours up close to this set as an 8 year old with my feet under the set gathering x-rays similar to the shoe fitting viewer at my Johnson Shoes dealer that my mom brought me to trying to kill me.
Sorry for your conniving loss, but the legs live on for the sake of history and for my early interest in color tv. Still going 50 years later.
Grinning too,

That's OK- I've tried the Larcenous/Wheedle 'n' Cajole method on several folks here, trying to wrest treasures away from 'em...Never has worked...They always see right thru me...Guess I'd starve if I ever became a Sneak Thief/Artiste De Conne' for real...Your story sounds better than the one I was gonna lay on him...NOBODY'S stupid enuff to believe a TV wouldn't work unless you had the Legs screwed in...Well, I take that back...I know some folks who ARE that stupid...Unfortunately, none of 'em have 1955 RCA color sets...
