In the early days there were not many real "junk" color sets on the market. I suspect the fifties Motorola sets and probably the late fifties Westinghouse rectangular would fit in that category. Everything else was fairly high-end. Zenith set a new standard in the sixties with sets which could match RCA for picture quality while outlasting them on build quality. Now, I never did much with Sony color sets and never really liked them for some reason...so I tend to look at the 70s Zenith line as being a standard for the world. That was how a color TV should have been built.
