267 Sq In is a dead giveaway that it is a 21" roundie. Reminds me of ads from the late '60's to early '70's in the Seattle area, for a place called TVS Marts (TV Stereo). They liked to offer Curtis Mathes "combos" for $399. They were 15 inch rectangular solid state color sets with a stereo in a cheap particle board cabinet with gen-u-wine virgin vinyl coverings. Still, the pics were fairly good on thos sets, and that was a good price for all those features regardless of overall build quality. K-Mart was selling Capehart branded console stereos at that same time for about $169, and no TV. Ironically, the Everett, WA TVS is now a pawn shop. :>)
