Actually, the CT-100 RCA from '54- the first one- is capable of astoundingly good pictures when properly set up, as are most of the roundies. All these were tube-based-you didn't see transistorised color sets til the late '60s, & even way into the '70s, a lot of them were "hybrid"- primarily solid state, w/3 or 4 tubes in certain circuits.
